Cryogenic heat transfer.

Author(s) : BARRON R. F.

Type of monograph: Book

Summary

This book, part of the "Series in chemical and mechanical engineering" covers some of the special heat transfer problems (variable properties, near critical convection, Kapitza resistance, etc.) that are encountered in the cryogenic temperature range, where there are significant differences from conventional heat transfer problems. Example problems are given in each section to illustrate the application of the principles presented. Topics covered include: thermal properties of materials at low temperatures; special insulations used in cryogenics; problems of conduction with temperature-dependent material properties; convection correlations useful in many cryogenic energy conversion systems; boiling, condensation and two-phase flow for cryogenic fluids; heat transfer to solid-liquid mixtures (slush); radiation heat transfer; heat exchanger design.
