Features: This book is revised based on the newly formulated "Basic Requirements for Teaching Heat Transfer in Engineering Undergraduate Programs in Higher Education" by the Ministry of Education, on the basis of the previous edition. It is suitable for various majors in mechanical and thermal processing. In terms of its structure, the book integrates the characteristics of thermal processing technology, focusing on explaining the theoretical foundations of heat transfer processes and cultivating certain analytical and computational skills, thereby creating conditions for learning related core courses and absorbing new theories and technologies. Compared to existing textbooks, this book has unique features. It emphasizes heat conduction theory while appropriately organizing the content related to convective heat transfer and radiative heat transfer. The book consists of eight chapters, each accompanied by review questions and exercises, with answers provided for the exercises. At the end of the book, there is a rich appendix and a bibliography of references. The entire book uses national legal units of measurement. This book can also be referenced by technical personnel in fields such as mechanical manufacturing, materials science, and metal smelting.
