Heat Transfer is the new book, in 2 volumes, written by 3 members of LEMTA: Yves Jannot – CNRS research engineer, Christian Moyne – CNRS research director and Alain Degiovanni – professor emeritus of the University of Lorraine and research director at the International University of Rabat in Morocco.
- Volume 1 deals with conduction and convection. It examines the treatment of transient conduction, which is essential for the optimisation of processes and systems as well as for all energy saving problems.
- Volume 2 deals with radiation and exchangers (heat exchangers and flat plate solar collectors). It presents in particular the treatment of radiation in semi-transparent media to be taken into account both for insulation or recovery of high temperature waste heat (energy saving in industry) and in certain solar applications (energy transition).
The numerous exercises allow the reader to understand all the applications, whether in the field of building, transport, materials or the environment. The appendices contain all the data needed to solve the exercises and will be a valuable source of information.
This book is designed for masters and engineering school students who are interested in all aspects of heat transfer, but also for engineers who will find here the bases necessary for the understanding of apparently similar phenomena (conduction-convection-radiation), but which require a different form of reflection and approach.
