Features: This book is a specialized work on vehicle cooling heat transfer. It is divided into eight chapters, introducing the fundamental theories and basic calculation methods of heat transfer; the motion and heat release patterns of high-temperature gases in internal combustion engines and the calculation methods for heat release flux; the temperature and heat flow calculation methods for pistons, cylinder heads, and cylinder blocks (cases), as well as the structural design methods for cooling and heat dissipation; and the thermodynamic design and flow resistance calculations of cooling systems. The core content of the book focuses on the fundamental theories and methods of enhancing heat transfer, compiling over 50 different structural forms of enhanced heat transfer surfaces (also known as compact heat transfer surfaces) applicable to vehicle cooling heat transfer, along with their heat transfer and resistance design data, presented in the form of graphs and correlations. The book also introduces the thermodynamic design, resistance calculations, and optimization methods for automotive heat exchangers. The main features of this book are its rigorous theoretical foundation, extensive and reliable data, strong general applicability, and practical convenience. This book is suitable for use by teachers, senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as relevant technical personnel in fields such as thermal energy and power engineering, vehicle engineering, refrigeration and cryogenic engineering, and aerospace engineering.
