Introduction to heat transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation. Applications to heat exchanges, ducts & pipes, surfaces, phase exchanges, and mass transfer. Application of dimensional analysis and numerical methods for solving heat transfer problems. Design of equipment involving heat-transfer processes.
Objective
At the end of this class, students will be able to apply scientific and engineering principles to analyze and design aspects of engineering systems that relate to conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer. Students will also learn to use appropriate analytical and computational tools to investigate conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer. Students will become both competent and confident in interpreting results of investigations related to heat transfer and thermal design.
