Heat Transfer

ENG ME 419

Prerequisites: ENGME 303 & ENGME 304. - This course covers the fundamentals of heat transfer from a macroscopic and engineering perspective, and aims to develop a physical and analytical understanding of the three modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation), with an emphasis on simplifying approximations and empirical correlations to solve real-world engineering problems. The main topics that this course covers are: Steady-state conduction in one and two dimensions; Non-steady (transient) conduction in one-dimensional systems; Forced and natural convection (external and internal); Introduction to boiling, evaporation, and condensation; Application to heat exchangers; Radiation heat exchange; Mass Transfer Analogies (diffusion and convection).
