An advanced treatment of conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer from a theoretical perspective. Topics include: conservation of linear momentum in integral and differential forms; steady state and transient conduction; moving boundary effects associated with melting and evaporation; boundary layer flows with emphasis on laminar conditions; scale analysis; forced and free convection; internal and external flows; black body radiation; radiative exchange between nongray surfaces; numerical methods using ANSYS/FLUENT. Taught at the level of "Conduction Heat Transfer", by Arpaci; "Convective Heat and Mass Transfer", by Kays and Crawford, and "Radiation Heat Transfer", by Sparrow and Cess.

When Offered Fall.

Permission Note Open to graduate students at all levels and senior-level undergraduates.
