DESCRIPTION:
From the Publisher Not only enables readers to include radiation as part of their design and analysis but also appreciate the radiative transfer processes in both nature and engineering systems. Offers two distinguishing features--a whole chapter devoted to the classical dispersion theory which lays a foundation for the discussion of radiative properties presented throughout and a detailed description of particle radiative properties, including real particle size distribution effects. Presents numerous realistic and instructive illustrations and problems involving current topics such as planetary heat transfer, satellite thermal control, atmospheric radiation, radiation in industrial and propulsion combustion systems and more.

Bad 1st Book A Customer I am a masters student in mechanical enigeering with my emphasis in heat transfer and thermal systems. This book is not good for an individual with little or no background in radiative transfer. This book should NEVER be used to teach undergraduates the theor. Mech98 said Excellent book. This is a amazing book which covers thermal radiation in a very comprehensive way. But this may be little too much for undergraduate students.. Good Enough for the Intended Audience R. Andrew Drew Fleming To put my review into context, I used this book for a graduate-level radiation heat transfer course at the University of Illinois, taught by Brewster himself. Make no mistakes: this is not a book for undergraduates, and assumes an intermediate background in g
