Customer Reviews

Extremely useful reference book

I have used this book extensively for identifying solutions to transport problems both as an undergraduate, and as a graduate student. The title of the book is slightly misleading as I have also used it for the solution of mass transfer problems. Bottom line the book is very useful and has proven to be a worthwhile purchase.

Conduction of Heat in Solids

I found the book interesting and challenging to read at the same time. The concepts are old but it presents them in a different format.

A MUST classical reference book in Heat Conduction - Excellent.

This is THE REFERENCE book in Heat Conduction which is a must to any Engineering or Science researcher. It covers a wide range of topics related to Heat Conduction. It is necessary to have even if one has other more modern books covering the topic such as the excellent Ozisik textbook on Heat Conduction.

Outstanding

This classic should be on every science and engineering bookshelf. The wealth of elegant analytical solutions is an invaluable resource for analysis as well as for informing numerical solutions.

A Must for Every Mathematicians, Physicists and Engineers

This book is a masterpiece of a collections of all the known analytical method applied to heat conduction. A must buy and collectable classic.
