For decades, the work was only available in German under the title . The first international edition was published in English in 1993, based on the 6th German edition, and quickly sold out, demonstrating the global appetite for its systematic approach to heat transfer problems.

Covers everything from simple conduction to complex multi-component fluid mixtures and radiation in furnaces Accessibility

These chapters present exact analytical and empirical correlations for fluid dynamics and heat transfer.

. Originally published in German in 1963, it has evolved into a global authority for calculating heat transport in chemical, mechanical, and power engineering. Springer Nature Link Core Components & Content
