Mechanical Engineering - Heat Transfer

Catalog description

This course introduces the fundamental concepts of conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer. Specific topics include the analysis of steady-state and transient conduction, free and forced convection as well as boiling and condensation, radiation heat transfer involving opaque solids, and multimode heat transfer. Various engineering devices and applications, such as heat exchangers and those associated with emerging technologies, are analyzed. Prerequisite: MATH 220 and ME 510 or C&PE 511.
