loginAfter the publication of “Pressure Vessel Design” and “Steam Generators” bySpringer Verlag which were written for field experts, I decided to write a generalisttextbook.It is designed for anybody interested in heat transmission, including scholars,designers and students, instead of experts of a specific field.Two criteria constitute the foundation of all my publications including the presentone.The first one consists of indispensable scientific rigour without theoreticalexasperation. The second criterion is to deliver practical solutions to operationalproblems.Admirable theoretical studies stand out because of their scientific rigor anddepth. Unfortunately, though, at times they have little impact on design require-ments because they either refer to schemata too remote from actual phenomena,or because the obtained results differ from the outcome derived from experimentaldata
