The Heat Transfer course requires that students apply their knowledge of mathematics and science to real thermal engineering systems. In this course, an expansion of students engineering skills, developed in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, is undertaken. Students are required to identify, formulate and solve thermal problems using a combination of mass and energy balances and energy rate equations. The course combines analytical techniques and design principles as applied to thermal systems. The students will have a full understanding of conduction, convection, radiation, condensation and boiling heat transfer and will be able to design a heat exchanger system.
