Heat and Mass Transfer

Modes of heat transfer. General heat conduction equation. Steady state conduction in one dimension, composite bodies, lagging, and economics of insulation. Thermal convection: Use of dimensional analysis. Radiative heat transfer: Black bodies, grey surfaces. Heat exchangers, extended surfaces, engine cooling. Combined modes of heat transfer. Mass transfer between phases, humidification of gases, types of dryers, evaporation.
