Opis

The volumes of Annual Review of Heat Transfer published up to 2005 were edited by Professor Chang-Lin Tien. Chang-Lin had a long-lasting impact on the heat transfer community through his pioneering research. The current editors decided to use Volume XIV as a bridge between the past and the future by summarizing Chang-Lin's contributions and reviewing current and future research directions in areas in which Professor Tien made a significant impact. In this volume, his contributions are divided into six topical areas: radiation and combustion, micro/nanoscale heat transfer, phase change and heat pipes, porous media, materials processing and laser materials interactions, and energy systems. Previous volumes of Annual Review in Heat Transfer all aspects of heat transfer and fluid flow are examined by an array of the top international specialists in the field. Future volumes are being planned to include contemporary achievements in the thermal and fluids sciences.
