This course is designed to be the core graduate course in heat and mass transfer. Concepts including diffusion kinetics, conservation laws, conduction, laminar and turbulent convection, phase change and radiation will be developed and applied. The course is open to students from all areas of engineering although an undergraduate background in heat transfer will be assumed. The problems and examples will include theory and applications drawn from a wide range of engineering design and manufacturing problems.
