5.0 out of 5 stars Classical book for Process heat transfer, January 27, 2002
By 
Gaurav Arora (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Process Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
Its one of those books that will be with me during my entire engineering career. One of the tuffest subject explained in such a neat way for easy comprehension. Hard to find book, mostly out of print. If you do find one, dont miss.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must for Practicing Engineers Involved in Heat Transfer, May 23, 1998
This review is from: Process Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
When Kern wrote this book, I am sure that he never imagined it would become a classic! Although some of the coefficient equations have improved slightly over the years, the methods developed in this book are as useful then as now. He literally covers all aspects of heat transfer, cooling towers and direct contact condensers, shell and tube, mixed gas condensation, boilers, direct-fired heaters, coils, etc.. You must have this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for the Practicing Design Engineer, December 24, 1997
By 
This review is from: Process Heat Transfer (Hardcover)
This book is the classic in practical heat transfer design. The first few chapters cover theory, while the remainder of the book is devoted to specific design problems...accompanied by fully detailed examples. Some readers may argue that it is too detailed (in today's age of computer simulators), however, stepping through details helps the designer gain an intuitive understanding of heat transfer design considerations. From single component to multiple component heat transfer with phase change (including accounting for the presence of non-condensibles), it's covered, though dated in its approach (the book was first published in 1950). In summary, if you are looking for a book that bridges the gap between theory and actual operation, look no further!
