Thermal engineers must have a strong knowledge of thermodynamics and the processes that convert generated energy from thermal sources into chemical, mechanical, or electrical energy — as such, thermal engineers can be employed in many industries, particularly in automotive manufacturing, commercial construction, and the HVAC industry. As part of their job, thermal engineers often have to improve a current system to make it more efficient, and so must be aware of a wide array of variables and familiar with a broad sweep of systems to ensure the work they do is economically viable. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this significantly updated new edition, \u003ci\u003eThermal Design\u003c\/i\u003e details the physical mechanisms of standard thermal devices while integrating essential formulas and detailed derivations to give a practical understanding of the field to students. The textbook examines the design of thermal devices through mathematical modeling, graphical optimization, and occasionally computational-fluid-dynamic (CFD) simulation. Moreover, it presents information on significant thermal devices such as heat sinks, thermoelectric generators and coolers, heat pipes, and heat exchangers as design components in larger systems — all of which are increasingly important and fundamental to numerous fields such as microelectronic cooling, green or thermal energy conversion, and thermal control and management in space. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReaders of the Second Edition of \u003ci\u003eThermal Design\u003c\/i\u003e will also find: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA new chapter on thermoelectrics that reflects the latest modern technology that has recently been developed\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMore problems and examples to help clarify points throughout the book\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA range of appendices, including new additions, that include more specifics on topicscovered in the book, tutorials for applications, and computational work\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA solutions manual provided on a companion website\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThermal Design\u003c\/i\u003e is a useful reference for engineers and researchers in me chanical engineering, as well as senior undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHoSung Lee, \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhD\u003c\/b\u003e at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1993, is Emeritus Professor in the department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Western Michigan University, USA.
