The principles of heat transfer as applied to the analysis of engineering oriented problems are
presented. The concepts of thermodynamic energy balances are used in various analytical
developments and familiarity with fluid mechanics is certainly essential for the discussion of

discussion for conduction, convection, and radiation and with applications where heat transfer in two or
more modes might be significant. The log-mean-temperature difference and effectiveness approaches
are discussed in heat-exchanger analysis since both are in wide use and each offers its own advantages
to the designer.
