Product Description
The standard for mastering heat and mass transfer
Respected for its readability, comprehensiveness, and relevance, Incropera and DeWitt's text is the recognized standard for learning heat and mass transfer. This text combines detailed coverage with the resources students need to learn the concepts and apply them to solving realistic and relevant problems. Using a rigorous and systematic problem-solving methodology, the text is filled with examples and problems that reveal the richness and beauty of the discipline.
The 6th Edition introduces coauthors Ted Bergman and Adrienne Lavine, who bring their record of success in teaching and research in heat and mass transfer to the text.
New Features
* Expanded coverage of areas of recent interest in heat transfer, including fuel cells and alternative energy devices, electronics cooling, micro-scale heat transfer, and biological as well as bioheat transfer. New examples and homework problems are included for each area.
* Introduction to the concepts of nano-scale transport and unified treatment of transient conduction.
* New material on two-phase heat transfer and enhanced internal forced convection.
* New and revised presentation of mass transfer including applications in materials science and biological engineering.
* New, revised, and updated problems and examples.
Model, solve, and explore heat transfer problems:
Interactive Heat Transfer and Finite Element Heat Transfer software with User's Guide
CD and print booklet, ISBN: 0-471-76115-X
Completely updated with a modern graphical user interface and better graphing tools, Interactive Heat Transfer (IHT) software will help you learn how to build thermal models, solve specific conditions, and explore the effects of multiple parameter variations. IHT is now capable of solving 300+ equations. The Finite Element Heat Transfer software enhances capabilities for treating steady-state and transient one- and two-dimensional conduction problems.

This book is very easy to use. all the chapters are well written and very easy to follow. If you want a book that covers heat transfer that is great for a class or great for reference then this is it.
Libro muy util December 10, 2005

Este libro lo conoci al cursar la licenciatura en FIMEE, ahora que lo compre opte por la 5a Ed que esta mejorado. Es muy util para asimilar los conceptos y entender los fenomenos. Me gusta mucho por que creo que esta muy completo y se explica muy bien. Es un libro que todos los Ing. Mecanicos deben tener. Los ejercicios son muy variados y de amplias aplicaciones, ello permite ver la amplitud de estudio de esta area de la ing. Vale la pena comprarlo (les sugiero la version en ingles).
GUZZZ
The book is so good you can teach yourself November 6, 2005

This textbook is one of the best I've ever used. Incropera and DeWitt do a great job of explaining convection, conduction, and radiation. I have heard that the mass transfer portion of the book is lacking however, I am an ME major so its not an issue. The covering of conduction is especially good, it goes into great detail math wise although its well presented so you don't have to be a mathematical wizard to follow along. The book goes into a little bit of heat exchanger design, not very much but its a good introduction. If your instructor requires this book for your heat transfer class consider yourself very fortunate.

A good overall review of heat transfer. Helpfull in dusting off the cobwebs when looking at heat transfer after many years.
