Thermal Contact Conductance

Download or read book Thermal Contact Conductance written by Chakravarti V. Madhusudana and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work covers both theoretical and practical aspects of thermal contact conductance. The theoretical discussion focuses on heat transfer through spots, joints, and surfaces, as well as the role of interstitial materials (both planned and inadvertent). The practical discussion includes formulae and data that can be used in designing heat-transfer equipment for a variety of joints, including special geometries and configurations. All of the material has been updated to reflect the latest advances in the field.
