Goals

The objective of this course is to provide the stude= nts with an understanding of the main modes of heat transfer and their application to engineering systems.

Prerequisite

MATH 2171 and MEGR 3111, both with a grade of “C” or better.

Class Topics

§ One-dimensional and two-dimensional steady s= tate conduction  § Transient conduction/convection analysis § Finite differe= nce numerical solutions  § Heat Exchangers § Turbulence and boundary-layer flows 

Outcomes

The following should be imparted to the students: 1.= An understanding of the principles of the three modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, and radiation). (assessment by homework and exam= s) 2. The ability to apply heat transfer analysis to engineering systems. (assessment by homework and exams) 3. Develop an understanding of numeric= al methods for solving heat transfer problems. (assessment by homework and exams) 4. Understand the global and social implications of engineering he= at transfer.
