Process Heat Transfer

Course objective

To equip students with the skills to solve one-dimensional and two-dimensional heat transfer problems both analytically and numerically, applying energy balance equations and rate laws to steady and unsteady state heat transfer and phase change processes, and using correlations to solve problems related to different heat exchangers.
