Need Help in formatting my Book - Chapter headings - Headers

Question

I am a Chemical Engineering graduate and I am helping my mentor in typesetting his book. He has given me the text and equations in MS Word and I have to convert the same in LaTeX.

I used Adobe InDesign for typesetting, however i was not pleased with its formatting of mathematical equation. Hence i starter learning LaTex a month ago.

I am facing some formatting issues on my chapter headings and headers and footers. I tried using quotchap,fncychap and fancyhdr packages, still i am not satisfied with the results. Hence i need to know how to format my Chapter and header-footer manually.

I tried to explain my problem as detail as possible for the readers to understand.

My requirements are,

1. I need the chapter number to be aligned right to say "CHAPTER-ONE" instead of "Chapter 1" and the Chapter heading to be aligned center and need 2 horizontal lines,first 0.35mm,second 0.2mmm across the page. As Shown below, Instead i get the formatting shown below.

2. I need to get the header to be in a specific format as shown below. Also, I need a line of 0.25mm across the textwidth. But, When i use fancyhdr package, I get this

3. I DON'T want a footer at all, because i need space for footnotes.

4. I am using the geometry package for customizing my paper size and margins. I need to know whether i can include bleed. The image given below can give you an idea. This is the Adobe InDesign Document properties..

My code for preamble and first section is given below, Please tell me what i did wrong.

Heat transfer is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the generation, use, conversion, and exchange of thermal energy and heat between physical systems. In engineering practice, an understanding of the modes of heat transfer is becoming increasingly important since heat transfer plays a crucial role in the design of vehicles, power plants, refrigerators, electronic devices, buildings, and bridges, among other things. The science of thermodynamics deals with the amount of heat transfer as a system undergoes a process from one equilibrium state to another, and makes no reference to how long the process will take. But in engineering, mainly interested in the rate of heat transfer, which is the topic of the science of heat transfer.

I will answer any clarifications needed regarding my problem if asked.

I sincerely thank each and every individual in advance for trying to help me with my problems. I expect a positive reply from the forum as soon as possible.

Answer 1

Here's one way to go about implementing issues #1, #2, and #3. (I leave aside #4; but this is an issue that can be dealt with much later on.)

\documentclass[11pt,twoside,openright]{book}
% If we store the book title in a macro, we can use it in many places
\newcommand{\thebooktitle}{Heat and Mass Transfer}

% Fonts, encodings, languages
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}

% Page dimensions
\usepackage[
  paperheight=24.5cm, paperwidth=18cm,
  left=1.5cm, right=1.5cm, top=1.5cm, bottom=1.5cm,
  bindingoffset=7mm,
  includehead,includefoot
  ]{geometry}

% Provides dummy text for testing purposes
\usepackage{lipsum}

% Header Style:
% booktitle | chapter-number.page-number | chapter title
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\renewcommand{\chaptermark}[1]{\markboth{#1}{}}
\lhead{\thebooktitle}
\chead{\thechapter.\thepage}
\rhead{\leftmark}
% Make sure footer is empty
\lfoot{}\cfoot{}\rfoot{}

% Chapter Style:
\usepackage{titlesec}% titlesec has \titleformat, \titlerule, \filleft, \filcenter
\usepackage{fmtcount}% fmtcount has \NUMBERstring
\def\firstchaprule{\titlerule[0.35mm]}
\def\secondchaprule{\titlerule[0.2mm]}
\titleformat{\chapter}[display]
  {\bfseries\Large}
  {\filleft\MakeUppercase{\chaptertitlename} \NUMBERstring{chapter}}
  {2ex}
  {\vspace{1ex}%
    \filcenter}
  [\vspace{1ex}%
  \firstchaprule
  \vspace{1pt}%
  \secondchaprule
  ]

\title{\thebooktitle}
\author{Prabhu}
\date{}
\begin{document}
% We want an 'empty' (or plain?) pagestyle for the front matter
\pagestyle{empty}
% \pagestyle{plain}
\maketitle
\chapter{Basics Concepts}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\section{INTRODUCTION}

\lipsum[1-20]% generates dummy text for testing purposes
