Heat Transfer Examples

This is a collection of increasingly complex solved problems involving heat transfer, which must also call upon the principles of thermodynamics and material properties. A working knowledge of differential equations is also essential to understanding this subject. We will cover thermal aspects and also pressure drop but neither mechanical concerns, such as structural, nor chemical ones, such as corrosion. While these latter considerations are important in any design, they must be addressed elsewhere. The examples are worked in SI units with English units in parentheses.
