| Book Description | Advances in Industrial Heat Transfer presents the basic principles of industrial heat transfer enhancement. Serving as a reference and guide for future research, this book presents a complete approach, from redesigning equipment to the use of nanofluids in industry. Based on the latest methods of the experiment and their interpretation, this book presents a unified conception of the industrial heat transfer process and procedures which will help decrease global energy consumption. Containing both theoretical and practical results, the book uses text, pictures, graphs, and definitions to illustrate points and highlight concepts. |
| Editorial Review | Students of gastronomy, nutrition, and food technology will find this well-illustrated book a splendid resource to augment their textbooks, and even serve as one. ...basically the book is about the molecules that are shaped into the structures (and fluids, odors, and colors) that delight and nurture us. ... Highly recommended. All readership levels. -M Kroger, emeritus, Pennsylvania State University, University Park Campus in CHOICE Magazine The approach taken by the author is to discuss in a simple, narrative manner the industry, biochemistry, physiology, including taste of food constituents and what that means to us. Mixed with stories, it is a very pleasant but also instructive reading. With many references. Recommended to people who like to cook, eat, and advise on nutrition." -Professor Zvi Laron, Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol. 10, No. 4, July 2013 |
