TI - Modeling and approximation in heat transfer SN - 9781107012172 U1 - 621.402 PY - 2016/// CY - New York PB - Cambridge University Press KW - Heat- Transmission- Mathematical Model KW - Engineering KW - Heat Engineering- Mathematics N1 - Includes bibliographical references and index N2 - Engineers face many challenges in systems design and research. Modeling and Approximation in Heat Transfer describes the approach to engineering solutions through simplified modeling of the most important physical features and approximating their behavior. Systematic discussion of how modeling and associated synthesis can be carried out is included - in engineering practice, these steps very often precede mathematical analysis or the need for precise results ER -
