Explore the fundamental principles and applications of heat transfer in this comprehensive 17-hour course. Delve into the three main modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Learn to perform energy balance calculations, analyze heat diffusion equations, and solve problems involving various geometries and materials. Master techniques for handling 1D and 2D conduction, extended surfaces (fins), and transient heat conduction. Investigate radiation heat transfer, including blackbody concepts, surface properties, view factors, and radiation network models. Examine convection heat transfer over external surfaces, with a focus on flat plate analysis. Apply these concepts through numerous examples and problem-solving exercises throughout the course.
