Thermal energy transport

Summary

Heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation. Fundamental laws in heat transfer. Equations from fluid statics and fluid dynamics. Pressure losses. Gas discharge through openings. Similarity and modeling in heat transfer and fluid flow.
Meaning of heat exchangers. Recuperators: the temperature of the medium along the heat exchange surface, the heat output, the temperature of the heat exchange surface. Regenerators.
