Integral Transforms in Computational Heat and Fluid Flow

By Renato MacHado Cotta

Integral Transforms in Computational Heat and Fluid Flow is a comprehensive volume that emphasizes the generalized integral transform technique (G.I.T.T.) and the developments that have made the technique a powerful computational tool of practical interest. The book progressively demonstrates the approach through increasingly difficult extensions and test problems. It begins with an overview of the generalized integral transform technique in contrast with classical analytical ideas. Various applications are presented throughout the book, including transient fin analysis with time-dependent surface dissipation, laminar forced convection inside externally finned tubes, metals oxidation at high temperatures, forced convection in liquid metals, and Navier-Stokes equations.

Very Good Book

If you work with the GITT (General Integral Transform Techinique), solving fluid mechanics and heat transfer problems on a pos-graduate level, so this is your Bible. A little confusing on the nomenclature for beginners, but it is not a big problem if you already have same experinece with the equations.
