Learning outcomes
After this course student knows the basic forms of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation. He or she can define the equations and boundary conditions and solution methods needed in the heat transfer problem. During the course student can learn to solve heat transfer problems mainly using analytical methods. In the exercise work also difference method will be used to solve temperature distribution.
