4 This book is dedicated to my wife Vera for opening many possibilities and providing balance in my life.

5 PREFACE This book is designed to: Provide students with the tools to model, analyze and solve a wide range of engineering applications involving conduction heat transfer. Introduce students to three topics not commonly covered in conduction heat transfer textbooks: perturbation methods, heat transfer in living tissue, and microscale conduction. Take advantage of the mathematical simplicity of onedimensional conduction to present and explore a variety of physical situations that are of practical interest. Present textbook material in an efficient and concise manner to be covered in its entirety in a one semester graduate course. Drill students in a systematic problem solving methodology with emphasis on thought process, logic, reasoning and verification. To accomplish these objectives requires judgment and balance in the selection of topics and the level of details. Mathematical techniques are presented in simplified fashion to be used as tools in obtaining solutions. Examples are carefully selected to illustrate the application of principles and the construction of solutions. Solutions follow an orderly approach which is used in all examples. To provide consistency in solutions logic, I have prepared solutions to all problems included in the first ten chapters myself. Instructors are urged to make them available electronically rather than posting them or presenting them in class in an abridged form. This edition adds a new chapter, Microscale Conduction. This is a new and emerging area in heat transfer. Very little is available on this subject as textbook material at an introductory level. Indeed the preparation of such a chapter is a challenging task. I am fortunate

6 viii PREFACE that Professor Chris Dames of the University of California, Riverside, agreed to take on this responsibility and prepared all the material for chapter 11. Now for the originality of the material in this book. Much that is here was inspired by publications on conduction. I would like to especially credit Conduction Heat Transfer by my friend Vedat S Arpaci. His book contains a wealth of interesting problems and applications. My original notes on conduction contained many examples and problems taken from the literature. Not having been careful in my early years about recording references, I tried to eliminate those that I knew were not my own. Nevertheless, a few may have been inadvertently included. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First I would like to acknowledge the many teachers who directly or indirectly inspired and shaped my career. Among them I wish to single out Professors Ascher H. Shapiro of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Milton Van Dyke of Stanford University, D.W. Ver Planck of Carnegie Institute of Technology and Gordon J. Van Wylen and John A. Clark of the University of Michigan. I only wish that I had recognized their lasting contributions to my education decades earlier. Chapter 11 was carefully reviewed by Professor Gang Chen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The chapter author Chris Dames and I are grateful for his technical comments which strengthened the chapter. My wife Vera read the entire manuscript and made constructive observations. I would like to thank her for being a supportive, patient and understanding partner throughout this project. Latif M. Jiji New York, New York March, 2009
