Format:Paperback
The book arrived promptly and in good condition.
The contents are fairly specialized and not suited to a beginner (me). The units as used in the calculations are not clearly expressed in most cases.

The book is very good for finding very quickly information you need.
It is useful for both specialists in the area and non-pecialists who are interested in heat transfer.

Decent review of heat transfer, however lots of errors
26 April 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book does a good job of covering all of the relevant concepts of heat transfer. I would give this 4 or 5 star rating, however the author makes mistakes in solving his own practice problems, but whats worse is the author can not even use values from his own tables correctly (for example in problem 4.3 the author uses a cp=473, when clearly in the table it is stated as cp=0.473). Errors like this are unacceptable, especially when many problems reference other problem. I have tried to reach the publisher to help correct these errors, but they have yet to get back to me.

Comprehensive
24 May 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Used this as a supplementary text to try and bring in an alternative perspective to the material for my Thermals & Fluids class. I didn't actually use it during the time I was taking the class but after I skimmed through the text and it had more in the way of content then my actual textbook for the course had. I would recommend this to people who either want it to help them when learning the material or for professionals who just need a casual reference text for when they are working.

A good supplement
27 Nov 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
One aspect of the book I found very useful is the compilation of empirical correlations for the Nusselt number, making this book an ideal **supplement** to a more theoretically oriented textbook. For upper level undergraduate and the first year graduate students in an engineering major, my recommendation in this regard would be "Fundamental Principles of Heat Transfer" by Stephen Whitaker.
