ME 50201 - Single Phase Convective Heat Transfer

Prerequisite(s): ME 41600 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D- OR (ME 31200 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D- OR CE 31200 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D-) OR ME 30500 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D-

Credit Hours: 3.00. This course will cover fundamentals of single-phase convective heat transfer by focusing on methods in determining convective heat transfer rates in various flow conditions most of which will be combined with calculations for the other modes of heat transfer to predict the overall heat transfer. The topics will include external laminar flows, laminar flow in ducts, external and internal turbulent flows, natural convection, combined convection, and convective heat transfer in porous media flow. Permission of instructor required.
