- This book presents the fundamental principles of thermodynamics and heat transfer with particular reference Special attention is to fire as related to fire prevention. Special attention is given to the study of unsteady heat transfer, radiant heat transfer (including radiation from flames to the surroundings), thermodynamic analysis of the growth of fires and theoretical modeling of fires in buildings. This book will be of great help to students of the higher technical and fire-fighting schools. It will also be a useful reference book for scientists and faculty members of fire service colleges and institutes as also for the staff of fire stations.
