Aims:
To provide a knowledge of heat transfer that is of vital importance in many industrial sectors from process industries, through vehicles, etc. power plant, to building technology.
|
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the basic heat transfer processes.
- Calculate heat transfer rates using correlations of non-dimensional groups, analytical techniques or numerical techniques.
- Model real-life processes for the purposes of approximate calculation.
- Understand the compromises between effectiveness and cost inherent in the design optimisation of heat transfer equipment.
- Have basic knowledge about the roles of numerical techniques in heat transfer design and the frequently used commercial software packages.
