Background
Sparrow, Ephraim Maurice was born on May 27, 1928 in Hartford, Connecticut, United States. Son of Charles and Frieda (Gottlieb) Sparrow.

Revised to include more information on analytical models for wavelength independence, Radiation Heat Transfer, Augmented Edition has been rearranged, providing problems within each chapter rather than at the end of the book. Written by Ephraim M. Sparrow, a generalist who works on a very broad range of problems that encompasses almost all mechanical engineering topics, the book presents key ideas without being exhaustive. Sparrow is in charge of the Laboratory for Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Practice, whose function in to undertake both industrially bases and fundamental problems that fall within the bounds of heat transfer and fluid flow.

(Presents a comprehensive, accessible and readily usable r...)
Presents a comprehensive, accessible and readily usable reference to the necessary formulations, numerical schemes, and innovative solution techniques for solving problems of heat and mass transfer and related fluid flows. Grouped by major sets of methods and functions, the text describes new or improved, as well as standard, procedures. This collection of contributions from leading figures in the field covers parabolic systems, hyperbolic systems, integral and integro-differential systems, Monte Carlo and perturbation methods, inverse problems and more.
