ME 437 - Computational Heat Transfer & Thermal

Institution:

Saint Martin's University

Subject:

Description:

Application of finite difference numerical methods to heat transfer from steady two dimensional heat transfer to transient three dimensional (explicit and implicit methods). Computations and characterization for designs of thermal systems using commercial thermal software. Learn to build finite element models: geometric modeling, elements and meshing, fields, materials and element properties, thermal/fluid boundary conditions, groups, viewing, display. Learn to evaluate the models analysis set up, results and plots. Applications to thermal engineering problems. Thermal engineering design projects assigned will be modeled thermally using commercial thermal software. Prerequisite: ME 347.
