As one of the most popular heat transfer texts, Jack Holman's HEAT TRANSFER is noted for its clarity, accessible approach, and inclusion of many examples and problem sets. The new Ninth Edition retains the straight-forward, to-the-point writing style while covering both analytical and empirical approaches to the subject. Throughout the book, emphasis is placed on physical understanding while, at the same time, relying on meaningful experimental data in those situations that do not permit a simple analytical solution. New examples and templates provide students with updated resources for computer-numerical solutions.

As a general rule, I don't consider the books I studied as in the "Read" sorts. In fact, I had went through Heat Transfer twice before. Once in college and another time for the masters (Which eventually I ended up not taking the test that year).
This time, I'm not studying it per se. I had changed how I view the world already since then, so this time I'm reading this for the reading pleasure. I want to learn as in how I learned about the stuff I had read in this time between.

Among all the courses I had, I liked Heat Transfer much more. It only makes sense if I start with it for my second run for the masters. Wish me luck and persistence!

Prof. Holman gives you theoretical physics (resistors etc.). Then, he gives you empirical approach. It is very balanced & it has nice transition between chapters. Lots of coeffifients (Grashof etc.) & tables too.

İçi boş, ama temel bir kitap. Gerekli bilgileri yazmış gerisi yok, örnekler yetersiz.Okuması gerekenler ve ilgisi olanlar için Incropera'yı öneririm.
