Publisher's Synopsis
Fortran Methods in Heat Flow is a comprehensive guidebook written by Schenck Jr. and Hilbert Van Nydeck, aimed at providing a thorough understanding of the Fortran programming language and its applications in heat flow analysis. The book is designed for engineers, scientists, and researchers who are interested in using Fortran for solving complex heat flow problems in various fields such as aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineering.The book begins by introducing the basic concepts of heat transfer, including conduction, convection, and radiation. It then provides a detailed explanation of the Fortran programming language, including its syntax, data types, control structures, and input/output functions. The authors also discuss the various Fortran libraries and subroutines that are commonly used in heat flow analysis.The book covers a wide range of topics related to heat flow analysis, including one-dimensional and two-dimensional steady-state heat conduction, transient heat conduction, and heat transfer by convection and radiation. The authors provide numerous examples and case studies throughout the book to help readers understand the practical applications of Fortran in heat flow analysis.Overall, Fortran Methods in Heat Flow is an essential resource for anyone who wants to learn Fortran programming and its applications in heat flow analysis. The book is well-written, easy-to-follow, and provides a wealth of information and practical examples that will help readers develop their programming skills and solve complex heat flow problems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
