09ME602                 HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER              

        

OBJECTIVE:

• To integrate the concepts of all modes of heat transfer and energy transfer.
• To familiarize the application of heat exchanger, Composite walls, extended surfaces and Gas radiation

1. CONDUCTION                                                                                                 

Fourier's law of conduction in simple and composite geometries, types of boundary and initial conditions, contact resistance, conduction with heat generation, extended surface heat transfer, transient and periodic heat conduction, and application of numerical methods.

2. RADIATION                                                                                                    

Basic laws of radiation, radiation in ideal and real surfaces, view factor algebra, radiation shields, electrical analogy using radiosity and irradiation, gaseous emission and absorption.

3. CONVECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER                                                                     

Dimensional analysis, boundary layer concept, basic governing equations, laminar and turbulent external and internal flows, forced and free convections, integral methods, semi-empirical correlations, flow over bank of tubes.

4. PHASE CHANGE HEAT TRANSFER AND HEAT EXCHANGERS                      

Modes of boiling, Nusselt theory of condensation, correlations in boiling and condensation, types of heat exchangers, methods of analysis, fouling factor and simple design problems.

5. MASS TRANSFER                                                                                          

Rate equations, mass diffusion in binary mixtures, evaporation in a column, forced convective mass transfer, heat and mass transfer analogies.
