    Heat transfer is the science that deals with the rate and distribution of heat. There are three main modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction involves the transfer of energy between adjacent particles through interactions. Convection involves the combined effects of conduction and fluid motion transferring energy between a surface and adjacent moving fluid. Radiation emits electromagnetic waves as a result of atomic/molecular changes, and the maximum rate of radiation from a blackbody is calculated using the Stefan-Boltzmann law.

    HEAT TRANSFER
    Heat Transfer

    Science that deals with rate of heat transfer as well as temperature distribution

    Heat transfer has direction as well as magnitude

    The basic requirement for heat transfer is the presence of a temperature difference.

    The rate of heat transfer in a certain direction depends on the magnitude of the temperature difference per unit
    length in that direction.

    Total amount of heat transfer when the rate of heat transfer is available.

    Q   Q dt
    t1

    The rate of heat transfer per unit surface is called heat flux, and the average heat flux on a surface is expressed as:

    Conduction

    Transfer of energy form the more energetic particles of a substance to the adjacent less energetic ones as a result
    of interactions between particles.

    The rate of heat conduction through a medium depends on the temperature gradient, geometry of the medium, its
    thickness, and the material of the medium.

    The rate of heat conduction through a layer is proportional to the temperature difference across the layer and the
    heat transfer area, but it is inversely proportional to the thickness of the layer.

    Convection

    Convection is the mode of energy transfer between a solid surface and the adjacent liquid or gas that is in motion,
    and it involves the combined effects of conduction and fluid motion.

    Where h is the convection heat transfer coefficient in W/(m2 oC)

    Ts is the surface temperature

    T∞ is the temperature of the fluid far from the surface

    Radiation

    Radiation is the energy emitted by matter in the form of electromagnetic waves (or photons) as a result of the
    changes in the electronic configurations of the atoms or molecules.

    The maximum rate of radiation which can be emitted from a surface at an absolute temperature, and the body that
    emits radiation at this maximum rate is called a blackbody. Blackbody radiation is calculated by:

    Qmax   Ts4  W
    where,   5.67 x 108 W/(m 2 K 4 )
