Summary
"This book brings together and integrates the results from over 500 of the latest sources from the global publications devoted to heat transfer and hydraulic resistance of fluids flowing inside channels of various geometries at near-critical and supercritical pressures. This book is of interest to nuclear and mechanical engineers in both industry and academia, who are concerned with the development and design of next-generation reactors, as well as engineers and technologists currently working with supercritical steam generators and power systems."--BOOK JACKET.
