UZB 317E - Heat Transfer

Course Objectives

1. To provide students with the basic principles required for understanding conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer.
2. To enable students to be able to apply the basic principles of heat transfer in the analysis and design of engineering systems.

Course Description

Introduction to heat transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation. Electric network analogy. Steady state solution for heat conduction in plane and radial walls, composite walls, walls with energy generating sections, and extended surfaces (fins). Introduction to multi-dimensional conduction. Unsteady heat transfer to plates, cylinders, and spheres. Practical hydraulic and thermal analysis of convection with applications to heat exchangers. Black- and gray-body radiation systems.
