Goals:           To familiarize the students with basic modes of heat transfer, appreciate
                       the physical principles and basic concepts underlying the transfer of   
                       heat by conduction , convection and radiation . To present the                                  
                       methodology required to solve problems to be encountered in actual
                       practice, To introduce the student to the design of heat exchange  
                       equipment, familiarizing the student with the concept of temperature
                       measurement equipment, fins and heat pipe.
 
Topics to be covered:   
1-Introduction and mechanisms of heat transfer (2 classes).
                      2-Steady state heat transfer by conduction. (8 classes)
                      3-Individual coefficients of heat transfer, overall coefficients, scale
                          resistance, mean temperature difference for parallel, counter-current  
                         and mixed flow arrangements. (6 classes)
                     4- Heat Transfer correlation in convection ( development by dimensional
                          analysis ) and its different forms for different actual situation such as
                         heating and cooling inside tubes in turbulent, transition and laminar
                         flow, heating and cooling outside tubes and tube bundles, heat transfer
                         in agitate vessels. (6 classes )
                     5-Natural convection . (3 classes )
                     6-Radiation through non- absorbing and absorbing media. (6 classes )
