Detailed
description of topics:
- Basic equations for fluid mechanics: mass-, momentum- and energy equations in
differential form
- Unsteady-State Conduction: introduction; lumped-heat-capacity system; transient heat
flow in a semi-infinite solid; convection boundary conditions; multidimensional systems;
problems.
- Principles of convection: introduction; viscous flow; inviscid flow; laminar boundary
layer on a flat plate; energy equation of the boundary layer; the thermal boundary layer;
relation between fluid friction and heat transfer; turbulent boundary-layer heat transfer;
turbulent boundary-layer thickness; heat transfer in laminar tube; turbulent flow in a
tube; problems.
- Empirical and practical relations for forced-convection heat transfer: empirical
relations for pipe and tube flow; flow across cylinders and spheres; problems.
- Natural convection systems: introduction; free-convection heat transfer on a vertical
plate; emperical relations for free convection; free convection from vertical planes and
cylinders; free convection from horizontal cylinders; free convection from horizontal
plates; simplified equations for air; free convection from pheres; combined free- and
forced convection; problems.
- Radiation heat transfer: introduction; physical mechanism; radiation properties;
radiation shape factor; relations between shape factors; heat exchange between
nonblackbodies; infinite parallel planes; radiation shields; gas radiation; problems.
- Heat exchangers: introduction; the overall heat-transfer coeeficient; types of heat
exchangers; the log mean temperature difference; problems.
