Heat Transfer Fundamentals

Course No. M-3003

Credit: 3 PDH

Course Fee: $86.85 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Edward P. Brunet, Jr., P.E.

 

Overview

Heat transfer occurs when there is a temperature difference between two bodies. There are three modes of transferring heat - conduction, convection and radiation. Heat is capable of being transferred through solids and fluids by conduction, through fluids by convection, and through empty space by radiation. The transfer of heat is an integral part of many industrial processes. Moreover, heat transfer affects our everyday lives - from an oven heating our dinner to the wind cooling us on a hot summer day. Thus, it is important that the engineer understands how to apply the basic principles of heat transfer to solve real-world problems.

This course covers the fundamentals of heat transfer, including conduction, convection and radiation. The course material covers Module 2 - "Heat Transfer" in the DOE Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Fundamentals Handbook.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Heat transfer definitions and terminology, including heat flux, thermal conductivity, LMTD, and heat transfer coefficients
  • Conduction and the equivalent resistance formulas
  • Convection and use of the overall heat transfer coefficient
  • Radiant heat transfer, including black bodies, gray bodies and emissivity.
