……想象一下用 Excel 里的一万个单元格来进行微分方程的数值求解，没错，真的有人这么干过！Tony Kordyban 的《Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks》里就非常精彩地讲了如何用这种方法解决简单的传热问题。你这操作绝对能让身边的同事既惊叹又抓狂。Excel 百分之百是穷人版的仿真软件包。我个人其实更喜欢 Matlab 和 Simulink，如果我重回 25 岁，我肯定会疯狂迷上 Julia，但没有任何工具能……
…Imagine solving differential equations numerically using 10,000 cells in Excel, yes, it has been done! There's a nice treatment of how to do this for simple heat transfer problems in Tony Kordyban's Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks. You will amaze and frustrate your co-workers. Excel is 100% the poor man's simulation package. I like Matlab and Simulink a lot better, and if I were 25 again I'd be a fool for Julia, but nothing…

如果你对这个话题有哪怕一点点兴趣，我都强烈推荐 Tony Kordyban 写的一本小册子：《Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks: Everything You Know About Cooling Electronics Is Wrong》（它的续作《More Hot Air》也很棒）。作者在第 30 章提出论点，指出那些出自 MIL-HDBK-217 的数据根本就是拍脑袋捏造……
If you're at all interested in this topic, I can't recommend highly enough a little book by Tony Kordyban, Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks: Everything You Know About Cooling Electronics Is Wrong. (The sequel, More Hot Air, is good too). The author makes the case, in Chapter 30, that those numbers, which came from MIL-HDBK-217, were pulled…
……自学的话，我不知道会不会真有人把一本静力学教材里的习题全刷完。Shigley 看起来挺靠谱。感谢推荐。至于传热学，我顺藤摸瓜找到了 Tony Kordyban 写的《Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks》后面的参考书目，那本书更聚焦在电子器件散热上。因此我的书架上也有了一本 Holman 的《Heat Transfer》，我也很推荐用它来自学。Holman 的书有一个巨大的优点：他展示了……
…self-learning, I don't know if anyone would work through the problems in a statics textbook. Shigley looks good. Thanks for that recommendation. For heat transfer, I eventually wound up on the bibliography from Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks by Tony Kordyban, which is more focused on cooling electronics. I have Holman's Heat Transfer on my shelf as a result and I can recommend it for self-learning. One big advantage to Holman: he shows…
