Item description from seller
Paperback. Introduction to Radiative Heat Transfer offers students and instructors a more concise and affordable alternative to the comprehensive textbook Radiative Heat Transfer. Retaining essential content for a one-semester senior undergraduate or graduate course on thermal radiation, this book preserves the hallmark features of its predecessor. It includes excellent writing, historical highlights, and clear, consistent notations throughout, making it an ideal resource for learning the fundamentals and applications of radiative heat transfer. Other important points about the book include its numerous worked examples, a large number of problems based on real-world scenarios, and an up-to-date bibliography.The book integrates radiative heat transfer with other heat transfer modes in a coherent manner, emphasizing the core principles. It serves as a valuable tool for understanding thermal radiation and its interactions in practical situations. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

About the Author
Michael F. Modest received his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley. He is currently Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of California, Merced. His research interests include all aspects of radiative heat transfer; in particular heat transfer in combustion systems, heat transfer in hypersonic plasmas, and laser processing of materials. For several years, he taught at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the University of Southern California, followed by 23 years as a Professor of mechanical engineering at The Pennsylvania State University. Dr. Modest is a recipient of the Heat Transfer Memorial award, the Humboldt Research award, and the AIAA Thermophysics award, among many others. He is an honorary member of the ASME, and an Associate Fellow of the AIAA.
