Heat Transfer topics are commonly of a very complex nature and may involve several different mechanisms occurring simultaneously. Advances in numerical solution methods of nonlinear partial differential equations and access to high-speed, efficient computers have led to dramatic progress in recent years. There is still a need, however, to develop further innovative approaches for the solution of a variety of problems of current interest.
This book contains edited versions of the papers presented at the Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Methods in Heat Transfer. The objective of this conference series is to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of advanced topics, new approaches and application of advanced computational methods to heat transfer problems.
The papers featured are divided under the following headings: Conduction, Including Nonlinear Problems; Natural and Forced Convection; Heat and Mass Transfer; Casting, Welding, Forging and Other Processes; Heat Exchangers; Atmospheric Studies; Advances in Computational Methods; Modelling and Experiments; Micro and Nanoscale Heat Transfer; and Case Studies.
