"This book is written … in a very lucid manner. The language used to express the author’s viewpoint about the subject matter is very interesting and attracts the reader to jump deeper into the book. It not only covers the elementary portion of thermal sciences, but the author also skillfully elaborates on the important topics. In total, the book is extremely useful for the beginner and the skilled practitioner in the field of thermal sciences."
—Anil Kumar Patil, DIT University Dehradun [U.K.] IndiaThis book is one of the most integrative works I have ever seen in this field. It mixes important theoretical subjects and real world problem solutions. The presentation is done in a simple and efficient way. I recommend this book for faculty, undergraduate/graduate students, engineers and scientists."
—Adel El-Shahat, Georgia Southern University, USA"A comprehensive, almost encyclopedic treatise of thermal energy technologies and their applications. The level of detail on individual tecnhologies is extraordinary and the reference listings for each chapter covered are without equal . Thermal Energy should be a required reference for those who want to be informed on this important subject."
