MAE 314 - Elements of Heat and Mass Transfer

Analyzes steady state and transient heat conduction in solids with elementary analytical and numerical solution techniques; fundamentals of radiant heat transfer, including considerations for black, gray, and diffuse surfaces and the electrical analogy for systems having multiple surfaces; free and forced convective heat transfer with applications of boundary layer theory, Reynolds analogy, and dimensional analysis; and an introduction to mass transfer by diffusion using the heat-mass transfer analogy. Introduction to thermal design through a project. (Y)
