Syllabus
Course Description
|
This course focuses on the basic principles of heat transfer,
for conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat transfer is discussed in
applications involving external flow, internal flow, free convection,
boiling, condensation, heat exchanger, and radiation exchange. The students
will be able to reduce complex engineering applications involving heat
transfer to the essential and analytically analyze them, and to decide
about engineering solutions based on the analysis. Prerequisite: ChemE 330.
Within the framework of the new accreditation procedure
(ABET) it is measured whether students meet the course objectives. In this
course the course objectives will be measured with quizzes that test the
students understanding of the theory and applications, which the students
were exposed to during the lecture and by working through the weekly
homework problems, respectively. The students’ performance on these quizzes
will provide continuous feedback and provide improvement of the syllabus.
