Lecture 2 BASICS OF HEAT TRANSFER 2 1 SUMMARY OF LAST WEEK LECTURE • There are three modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation
way of presenting the essentials of heat transfer along with many examples The first edition of this book was published in 2003 At the University of
This lecture is intended to refresh the post graduate students memory about the basics of heat transfer regarding the various modes of heat transfer,
Convection describes the energy transfer between a surface and a fluid moving over that surface as a result of an imposed temperature difference Strictly,
Convection: An energy transfer across a system boundary due to a temperature difference by the combined mechanisms of intermolecular interactions and bulk
In all of these situations and many others, we can identify three basic mechanisms of heat transfer They are conduction, convection, and radiation
The basic mechanisms of heat transfer have been ex- plained and some quantitative relations have been presented However, this information will barely get
1 2 Difference between thermodynamics and heat transfer Let us try to gain an insight into the basic concept of thermal conductivity for various
