Undergraduate · 3 credits

This course provides theory and application of steady heat conduction in solids, involving contact resistance, thermal networks, and fin arrays. Students will also learn about transient heat conduction in solids, involving lumped system analysis, similarity solutions for semi-infinite domains, and general 1D transient solutions using approximate analytical solutions. Related topics include external, internal, and natural convection, with coverage of boundary layer theory and correlation equations, and thermal radiation. Select exercises are supported by numerical simulations to compare results and enhance conceptual understanding. The theoretical content is supported by a laboratory component and numerical simulations.
