Course Description

Learn about Conduction, Convection, Radiation and Heat exchangers most comprehensively and interactively. Derivations of formulas, concepts, and Numerical, examples are inculcated in the course with advanced applications. The course aims to cover all the topics and concepts of HMT as per the academics of students. 

Following are the topics (in detail) that will be covered in the course:

Conduction:

  • Thermal conductivity, Heat conduction in gases, Interpretation Of Fourier's law, Electrical analogy of heat transfer, Critical radius of insulation, Heat generation in a slab and cylinder, Fins, Unsteady/Transient conduction.

Convection:

  • Forced convection heat transfer, Reynold’s Number, Prandtl Number, Nusselt Number, Incompressible flow over a flat surface, HBL, TBL, Forced convection in flow through pipes and ducts, Free/Natural convection.

Heat Exchangers:

  • Types of heat exchangers, First law of thermodynamics, Classification of heat exchangers, LMTD for parallel and counter flow, NTU, Fouling factor.

Radiation:

  • Absorbtivity, Reflectivity, Transmitivity, Laws of thermal radiation, Shape factor, Radiation heat exchange.

Goals

  • Modes of heat transfer and Governing laws of heat transfer.
  • Thermal conductivity, Heat conduction in gases.
  • Interpretation Of Fourier's law, Electrical analogy of heat transfer, Critical radius of insulation.
  • Heat generation in a slab and cylinder, Fins, Unsteady/Transient conduction.
  • Forced convection heat transfer, Reynold’s Number, Prandtl Number, Nusselt Number.
  • Incompressible flow over flat surface, HBL, TBL, Forced convection in flow through pipes and ducts, Free/Natural convection.
  • Types of heat exchangers, First law of thermodynamics, Classification of heat exchangers.
  • LMTD for parallel and counter flow HE, NTU, Fouling factor.
  • Absorbtivity, Reflectivity, Transmitivity, Laws of thermal radiation, Shape factor, Radiation heat exchange.

Prerequisites

  • Must have a sound knowledge of differentiation and integration.
  • Preliminary idea of electrical analogy like current, potential difference, resistance.
  • Thermodynamic processes are as such adiabatic, constant pressure and isothermal.
  • The most important trait - "A kin and curious mind".
