Conduction Heat Transfer. 3 credits, 3 contact hours

Catalog description

Prerequisites: ME 610 and ME 616 or equivalent. Heat transfer by conduction: differential and integral forms of the energy equation for isotropic and anisotropic material. Analytical and numerical studies of transient and steady one-, two-, and three-dimensional heat transfer problems for a variety of boundary conditions including phase change. In addition, variational and boundary element methods are applied to heat conduction problems.
