DESCRIPTION:
Afterwards, he spent one year performing research at UFRJ/COPPE on a prestigious CNPq grant as an Instructor and a researcher. He then spent 15 months as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Texas at Arlington working on optimization algorithms, inverse problems in heat transfer, and electro-magneto-hydrodynamics including solidification. For the past years, he has been teaching and performing research in Brazil and helpi
Finite Difference Methods in Heat Transfer, Second Edition focuses on finite difference methods and their application to the solution of heat transfer problems. Finite difference methods are a versatile tool for scientists and for engineers. Such methods are based on the discretization of governing equations, initial and boundary conditions, which then replace a continuous partial differential problem by a system of algebraic equations. This updated book serves university students taking graduate-level coursework in heat transfer, as well as being an important reference for researchers and engineering.FeaturesProvides a self-contained approach in finite difference methods for students and professionalsCovers the use of finite difference methods in convective, conductive, and radiative heat transferPresents numerical solution techniques to elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic problemsIncludes hybrid analytical–numerical approaches
