**Preface to "Heat Transfer in Engineering"**

The advancements in research related to heat transfer have gathered much attention in recent decades following the quest for efficient thermal systems, interdisciplinary studies involving heat transfer, and energy research. Heat transfer, a fundamental transport phenomenon, has been considered one of the critical aspects for the development and advancement of many modern applications, including cooling, thermal systems which contain symmetry analysis, energy conservation and storage, and symmetry-preserving discretization of heat transfer in a complex turbulent flow. The purpose of this book is to present recent advances, as well as up-to-date progress in all areas of heat transfer in engineering and its influence on emerging technologies. The scope of the present book includes heat transfer and thermal phenomena at all scales; thermal systems and thermal management systems; an interdisciplinary study focusing on heat transfer; waste heat recovery and allied heat transfer applications; heat transfer in energy storage and energy conservation; experimental, numerical, and analytical studies focusing on heat transfer and thermal phenomena; and fundamental mechanisms and practical applications of heat transfer in a wide variety of processes. This book provides a reference platform for the emerging engineers and researchers for solving their heat transfer engineering problems and employing them in application technologies.
