At the end of this course, students will
- learn modes of heat transfer and perform energy balances on systems that involve conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer
- apply the conduction equation to a given problem to determine the temperature distribution and heat fluxes in objects,
- understand the convective transfer equations and apply them to a heat transfer problem
- identify, formulate and solve problems involving external and internal convection heat transfer for various surface geometries,
- gain hands-on experience in heat transfer experimentation through a number of laboratory tests.
