Advances in Heat Transfer
This volume of Advances in Heat Transfer begins with an excellent overview of heat transfer in bioengineering. Subsequent chapters lead the reader through fundamental approaches for analyzing the response of living cells and tissues to temperature extremes, state-of-the-art mathematical models of bioheat transfer, an extensive review of mathematical models of bioheat transfer processes at high and low temperatures, and experimental tools for temperature measurement. This volume will effectively aid any researcher in the field by illuminating a greater understanding of fundamental issues relevant to heat transfer processes in biosystems. Key Features* Presents the fundamentals and applications of heat and mass transfer in biomedical systems* Presents a review of mathematical models for bioheat transfer, including heat transfer at temperature extremes* Includes detailed discussions of state-of-the-art bioheat equations* Explains techniques for temperature measurement in the human body
Optical-Thermal Response of Laser-Irradiated Tissue
The second edition maintains the standard of excellence established in the first edition, while adjusting the content to reflect changes in tissue optics and medical applications since 1995. The material concerning light propagation now contains new chapters devoted to electromagnetic theory for coherent light. The material concerning thermal laser-tissue interactions contains a new chapter on pulse ablation of tissue. The medical applications section now includes several new chapters on Optical Coherent Tomography, acoustic imaging, molecular imaging, forensic optics and nerve stimulation. A detailed overview is provided of the optical and thermal response of tissue to laser irradiation alo...
Energy Metabolism in Farm Animals
Animal production systems have changed dramatically over the last two decades. Knowledge of energy metabolism and environmental physio logy has increased as appears from many textbooks on these disciplines. The contents of the symposia on energy metabolism of farm animals show this and they have initially focussed on feed evaluation and later on com parative aspects of energy metabolism. They show part of the progress being made. Application of knowledge of energy metabolism for animals has a long history since Lavoisier. In addition to this, studies about the environ mental requirements of animals have shown that we are still far from ac curate assessment of these requirements in terms of n...
Biological and Bioenvironmental Heat and Mass Transfer
Providing a foundation in heat and mass transport, this book covers engineering principles of heat and mass transfer. The author discusses biological content, context, and parameter regimes and supplies practical applications for biological and biomedical engineering, industrial food processing, environmental control, and waste management. The book contains end-of-chapter problems and sections highlighting key concepts and important terminology It offers cross-references for easy access to related areas and relevant formulas, as well as detailed examples of transport phenomena, and descriptions of physical processes. It covers mechanisms of diffusion, capillarity, convection, and dispersion.
Human Thermal Environments
Our responses to our thermal environment have a considerable effect on our performance and behavior, not least in the realm of work. There has been considerable scientific investigation of these responses and formal methods have been developed for environmental evaluation and design. In recent years these have been developed to the extent that detailed national and international standards of practice have now become feasible. This new edition of Ken Parson's definitive text brings us back up to date. He covers hot, moderate and cold environments, and defines these in terms of six basic parameters: air temperature, radiate temperature, humidity, air velocity, clothing worn, and the person's a...
