9

Modes of heat transfer – Fourier’s law – Newton’s law– Thermal conductance and resistance – Temperature field and temperature gradient – Heat transfer by conduction –General heat conduction equation – Thermal diffusivity and equivalent thermal conductivity – One dimensional steady state conduction through thick cylindrical shells Critical thickness of insulation for cylindrical surfaces.

UNIT II

CONVECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER AND BOUNDARY LAYER THEORY

9

Heat transfer coefficient – Forced convection – Free convection – Dimensional analysis and empirical correlation – Physical significance of dimensionless groups – Concept of hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers.


UNIT III

THERMAL RADIATION

9

UNIT IV

DESIGN OF HEAT EXCHANGERS

9

Heat exchangers – Types and variation in design – Overall heat transfer coefficient –LMTD – Correction factors for multiple pass heat exchanger – Illustrative examples –Number of transfer units and effectiveness of heat exchangers.

UNIT V
