MENG 3316 - Heat Transfer

Credit Hours: 3 Lecture: 3 Lab: 0

The study of the conduction, convection and radiation modes of heat transfer; both steady and unsteady state systems. Governing equations, boundary conditions and initial conditions are considered. One- and two-dimensional heat flow and thermal circuit concepts. Heat sinks and heat exchanger characteristics and applications of heat transfer to thermal systems design are included. Physics majors may substitute PHYS 3311 and PHYS 3351 for MATH 2320 and MENG 3334 as prerequisites for this course. A grade of C or better is required in all prerequisite courses.

Prerequisites: MATH 2315, MATH 2320 or PHYS 3311, MENG 3334 or PHYS 3351 and MENG 3310.
