I need to learn the basics of programming in matlab to simulate heat transfer problems.Please suggest me some books in this regard.
You could consider this book:
Heat Transfer by Gregory Nellis and Sanford Klein
This book is really a good starting point for the people who had no knowledge about basic matlab programming for heat transfer problems. It contains a lot of examples, with detailed software scripts as well. The book contains all the essential points on heat transfer, and it goes beyond some tranditional books on heat transfer. So it suits for both undergraduate and graduate students. Even as a researcher or engineer, we can use it as a manual, when we need to consult some basic concepts and classic examples.
You can find very interesting examples on MathWorks website, at the links below:

These examples and documentations are quite useful and can also be helpful for teaching and simulations. Try other keywords to search for more information.

Attached link is for a book, this book is for a basic heat transfer class. It really helpful to understand the fundamentals of heat transfer. it covers lots of examples that solved numerically. It included solutions for Matlab. It is also not so "dry" as other introductory books AND it is not so expensive, which is also very nice. I would definitely recommend this book if you want to learn the basics of heat transfers and focus on numerical solution. See the link, please.
i attached a chapter from a book, called "Using MATLAB to Compute Heat
Transfer in Free Form Extrusion" , you might find it interesting.

I will split this into two problem. The CFD part. For CFD, I recommend Partankar's textbook. No recommendation for MatLab.
If you are staring your project using CFD with little knowledge of it, I'll recommend you to tackle CFD and simply treat MatLab as just one programing language.
