Student Learning Outcomes
- Know the difference between conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer
- Know and be able to apply Fourier's law to one dimensional and multi-dimensional conduction heat transfer problems in both steady- and transient-state situations
- Know and be able to apply Newton's Law of Cooling for convection heat transfer applications
- now various non-dimensional numbers such as: Reynolds, Biot, Nusselt, Prandtl, Peclet, and Grashof number, and how they are applied.
- Know and be able to apply the Stefen-Boltzmann law to applications of radiation heat transfer.
