  • More about Thermal Spreading and Contact Resistance: Fundamentals and Applications


Thermal Spreading and Contact Resistance: Fundamentals and Applications is a single-source reference that provides comprehensive coverage of the key information that engineers need to know to understand thermal spreading and contact resistance, including predictive models and detailed examples. Written by two leading experts, the book covers contact conductance, mass transfer, transport from super-hydrophobic surfaces, droplet/surface phase change problems, tribology applications, heat transfer in micro-devices, orthotropic systems, and multi-source applications for electronics thermal management. It is an essential resource for mechanical, aerospace, and chemical engineers, as well as thermal engineers and researchers in thermal physics.

Thermal Spreading and Contact Resistance: Fundamentals and Applications is a single-source reference that provides comprehensive coverage of the key information that engineers need to understand thermal spreading and contact resistance. Written by two of the leading experts in the field, the book offers detailed examples throughout and includes information on contact conductance, mass transfer, transport from super-hydrophobic surfaces, droplet/surface phase change problems, and tribology applications such as sliding surfaces and roller bearings.

The book covers heat transfer in micro-devices and thermal spreaders, orthotropic systems, and multi-source applications for electronics thermal management applications. It also discusses fundamental principles, thermal spreading in isotropic half-space regions, circular flux tubes and disc spreaders, and rectangular flux channels and compound spreaders. Additionally, the book covers systems with non-uniform sink plane conductance, transient spreading resistance, and contact resistance between both non-conforming and conforming rough surfaces.

Thermal Spreading and Contact Resistance: Fundamentals and Applications is an essential resource for mechanical, aerospace, and chemical engineers working on research in the fields of heat transfer, thermal management of electronics, and tribology, as well as thermal engineers and researchers in the field.
