Process Heat Transfer by DQ Kern.
Perry's handbook.
If you have HTRI software accessible, they will give design manuals, which is very good.

97810, Try the "Handbook of Heat Transfer Applications" by McGraw Hill Book Co.. Also, Perry's Chem. Eng. and Perry's Engineering Manual are good resources, both are by McGraw Hill.

Hope this helps.

The above recommendations are both very good.

A free, webbook can be found on

As ever, this should not be used in isolation.

Nosey:

This Wolverine Databook II is great information and everyone should be grateful to you. However, the "real meat" of the information is not in the URL you furnished but, on the one prior to it:

http://www.wlv.com/products/databook/

There, you will find 32 Adobe Acrobat files corresponding to the index. This information is very important primarily because it is a product of a contribution by Kenneth Bell, who obviously wrote the chapter 2-section 6 part on the Bell-Delaware Method of shellside pressure drop.

This thread should be inserted into the Heat Transfer & Thermodynamics Forum in some fashion to alert the interested folks there.

Once again, thank you Nosey. You obviously have an inquiring and devious mind - the makings of a good engineer!
