Course Objective

This course is aimed to complete required knowledge about the basic concepts of numerical heat transfer. It includes the topics about the solution of coupled equations, encountered in convective heat transfer problems and some special methods used in heat transfer.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   to derive all conservation equations included heat flow.
2   to model a thermal system and develop appropriate solution methods.
3   to solve a thermal system using algorithms such as SIMPLE and SIMPLER and derive pressure, velocity and temperature distribution of system.
4   to know other advanced method of numerical analysis.
5   to interpret the obtained numerical results.
