The book "Heat Transfer Studies and Applications" is a collection of knowledge on different aspects of heat transfer, research based results, reviews and studies on applications. Basic principles of heat transfer in different avenues, such as vortices effect on heat transfer, stud‐ ies on heat exchangers, convection phenomena, conduction heat transfer, analysis of heat transfer and entropy are systematically presented.

Two phase flow is a complex phenomenon and it is extensively observed in chemical and process industries. In depth description along with mechanisms and modeling are highlight‐ ed here. Separation flow is being studied for a long time and still under intensive investiga‐ tion for exploring mechanism and applications. Here it is being incorporated with data and analysis.

A series of theoretical and numerical studies has been incorporated in this book. Theoretical framework for analyzing the boundary layer flow and heat transfer with viscous dissipation to sisko fluid has been formulated. Numerical analysis of heat transfer and thermal contact resistances on tubular heat exchanger, nonlinear heat transfer in thermally developing pipe flow, cooling in fusion plasma, mixing phenomena along with optimization of heat exchang‐ ers are presented.

Currently, researchers are deeply engaged in development of sensors for numerous applica‐ tions. Study on sensors development has been incorporated. Practical applications of heat transfer in different utility fields are incorporated. Also, analytical studies on different mod‐ els for metals, validation of theoretical and experimental data are highlighted. Intensive in‐ vestigations are going on to enhance heat transfer. Some of the approaches are presented in this volume.

Though this work was an addition to my prescheduled academic work load, it was very enjoyable. I would like to thank my students for their patience in getting slow responses from me. And lastly, I would like to thank my wife Nilufa and son Mehrab for their sacrifice in daily life during this work.
