A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Heat transfer fundamentals

Heat transfer fundamentals cover conduction, convection and radiation – the three modes of energy transfer – and the basic equations that quantify each. Mastering these concepts is essential for analysing solar thermal collectors, designing heat exchangers and solving exam problems that involve temperature distributions, heat fluxes and energy balances.
