2.51: Intermediate Heat and Mass Transfer

Fall | Undergraduate | 12 Units | Prereq: (2.005 and 18.03) or permission of instructor

Covers conduction (governing equations and boundary conditions, steady and unsteady heat transfer, resistance concept); laminar and turbulent convection (forced-convection and natural-convection boundary layers, external flows); radiation (blackbody and graybody exchange, spectral and solar radiation); coupled conduction, convection, radiation problems; synthesis of analytical, computational, and experimental techniques; and mass transfer at low rates, evaporation.
