The course provides heat transfer foundations (conduction, convection, radiation) as well as advanced topics addressed to the field of mechanics/aeronautics discipline.
The time-schedule of the course is five hours per week (first semester only)
Foundations
Mono and multidimensional heat conduction.
Transient conduction: scale analysis, semi-infinite body model.
Forced convection: boundary layer equations, dimensionless groups.
External and internal forced convection: theory and semi-empirical correlations.
Natural and two-phase convective heat transfer
Radiative properties of material and radiation heat transfer among black and gray surfaces.
Advanced topics / applications
Experimental heat transfer. Gas turbine heat transfer.

HEAT TRANSFER
Examination: oral.
Examinations are scheduled according to the official calendar; in case of a negative evaluation (or with a score not accepted by the student) it can be repeated only once during the same session (winter o summer session) and no more than twice throughout the same academic year.
Oral examination, based on a specific subject among those tackled during the taught course, with in addition a couple of small synthetic questions on other one/two subjects.
The aim of the examination is to assess the capability of solving specific thermal problems (including physical formulation and mathematical passages) and the skill in discussing and arguing them.
