ApL207 : Heat Transfer

Modes of heat transfer - conduction, convection, radiation; Basic conservation equations; Conduction: Fourier's law, heat diffusion equation, 1-D steady state conduction in extended surfaces, heat generation, lumped capacitance and 1D transient models, semi-infinite wall. Heat transfer coefficients in natural and forced convection; Convection: Forced and free convection - mass, momentum and energy conservation equations, scaling analysis and significance of non-dimensional numbers, thermal boundary layers, heat transfer in external and internal laminar and turbulent flows and use of correlations. Heat exchanger types and analysis: LMTD and effectiveness-NTU method. Introduction to radiative heat transfer; Radiation: properties, Laws, view factor, 3-surface network for diffuse - gray surfaces. Gas radiation.
