Theory: A study of the fundamental laws of conduction, convection, boiling, condensation and radiation. Analytical methods are applied to one and two dimensional conduction problems with convective boundary conditions. The foundations of empirical equations for a variety of convection situations are examined using similitude methods to form dimensionless groups such as Nusselt Number. Theory is rigorously reinforced though the solution of many problems. Design Project: Fundamental laws are applied to the design of variety of heat exchanger types. A heat exchanger design project is included. Laboratory Work: Experiments provide a means of verifying various elements of heat transfer theory. Axial and radial conduction though several experiments is observed along with concept of impedance. Axial and cross flow convection is examined for gases and liquids; comprehensive laboratory reports are required. Prerequisites: ET 204, MATH 210, MET 215. Prerequisite or Co-requisite: MATH 310.

This course complements MET 424 (Introduction to the Finite Element Method). In MET 424 the basic finite element algorithms for elastic members, pin-jointed and rigid jointed frames, bending of beams, torsional members and grid structures were developed. Also developed were the finite element algorithms or conduction heat transfer with convective boundary conditions. Hand and spreadsheet calculations for simple systems were performed. In MET 425 the student will learn how to use commercial finite element software to perform analysis of much larger systems. Additionally the methodology for performing stress calculations for plates and shells is presented and applied. Course Objectives (1) Use ANSYS-FEA to determine levels of stress and displacement in components that are subject to axial loading. (2) Use ANSYS-FEA to determine levels of stress and displacement in components that are subject to torsion (3) Use ANSYS-FEA to determine levels of stress and displacement in components that are subject to bending (4) Use ANSYS-FEA to determine temperature distribution in components that are subject to heat flux, fixed temperature and convective boundary conditions, with and without internal heat generation.
