Synopsis
This course introduces to basics of three mode of heat transfer
i.e. conduction, convection and radiation (steady & unsteady
state) with importance to Problem-solving. Also introducing
various heat transfer phenomena like boiling and condensation
and giving exposure to experimental determination of heat
transfer coefficients, including familiarity with the basic
instrumentation such as temperature measurement. Heat
transfer equipment such as double-pipe, Shell and tube, plate
and spiral exchangers. Finally touching upon heat exchanger
design using LMTD and NTU-Effectiveness methods and energy
integration.
