Features: Based on China's national policy of "rejuvenating the country through science and education" and the requirements of scientific and technological development on higher education in China, as well as the development trends of heat transfer course teaching worldwide, this book proactively grasps the impact and promotion of scientific and technological development and teaching reform on heat transfer course teaching. It has made significant reforms and explorations in the system structure and teaching content of the course, strengthening the cultivation of students' innovative spirit and engineering problem-solving abilities to adapt to the challenges of the 21st century. The book consists of 10 chapters, including conduction, convective heat transfer, radiative heat transfer, heat transfer processes, and heat exchangers, with an additional chapter on "Several Special Topics" to broaden students' horizons. It features an extremely rich set of exercises to meet teaching needs and provides detailed references for students to refer to during in-depth study and research. As a research outcome of the project "Research and Practice on the Reform of Teaching Content and Curriculum System in Thermal Engineering Courses" under the Ministry of Education's "Reform Plan for the Teaching Content and Curriculum System of Higher Education Toward the 21st Century," and as a national key textbook for general higher education during the "Nineth Five-Year Plan" period, this book has undergone thorough and meticulous work in writing, reviewing, editing, and design, ensuring superior quality. It can serve as a textbook or teaching reference for major disciplines such as energy and power, chemical and pharmaceutical engineering, aerospace, environmental and safety, transportation, weaponry, and civil engineering. It is also available for reference by relevant engineering technicians.
