MECH 6632 - Applied Conduction Heat Transfer

Prerequisites: MECH 6602, consent of instructor. Co-requisite: MECH 6604. In-depth study of conduction heat transfer - both transient and steady state in one, two, and three dimensions. Analytical methods utilizing ordinary and partial differential equations to solve classic heat conduction problems. Numerical methods to solve heat transfer problems with computer applications. Thermal conductivity methods and standards. Hands-on experimentation. 3 credits.
