Summary
Steady- state conduction-one dimension: heat source systems, conduction-
convection systems. Unsteady-state conduction:
lumped heat-capacity formulation. Principles of convection: Empirical and
practical relations for forced-convection
heat transfer. Natural-convection systems, Radiation heat transfer.
Condensation and boiling heat transfer.
Heat exchangers. Mass transfer: I, II Fickś law of diffusion, the mass-
transfer coefficient, evaporation processes in the atmosphere. Theory of
similarity: dimensionless groups in the heat and mass transfer.
