This book presents the solutions to the problems in Convective Heat Transfer. It also contains computer programs to solve homework problems on the CD accompanying the book. Included on the CD are computer programs based on differential and integral methods. Those on differential methods are for two-dimensional flows and allow the user to solve compressible external laminar and turbulent boundary layers, forced and free convection problems between two vertical parallel plates, wall jet problems, turbulent free jet problems, mixing layer between two uniform streams at different temperatures and internal laminar and turbulent flow problems with fully developed velocity profiles. Those programs based on integral methods are for two-dimensional flows and include Thwaites' method for momentum transfer, Smith-Spalding's method for heat transfer, Michel's method for predicting transition, Head's method for momentum transfer and Ambrok's method for heat transfer.
