Continuing the heat transfer series, in this video we take a look at conduction and the heat equation. Fourier's law is used to calculate the rate at which heat is transferred through an object due to ...

A thermodynamic description of transient heat conduction at small length and timescales is proposed. It is based on extended irreversible thermodynamics and the main feature of this formalism is to ...

Fundamentals of heat transfer by conduction, convection, radiation. Steady and transient heat conduction in solids. Forced and free convection in fluids. properties of thermal radiation. Radiation ...
