This course on conduction heat transfer starts with Fourier’s law which describes the conduction rate equation in Cartesian coordinates. Then you will be shown how to derive the conduction heat equation and to solve the resulting differential equation by applying boundary conditions to the general solution to get the temperature distribution equation as a function of time so we can calculate the conduction heat flux at any point using Fourier’s law.You will also study one-dimensional steady-state conduction analysis using both the standard and the alternative methods. This will include exploring the concepts of thermal resistance and the overall heat transfer coefficient. Next you will study conduction analysis with heat generation addressing both asymmetrical and symmetrical boundary conditions. Finally the course introduces conduction equations in radial systems exploring both cylindrical and spherical coordinates.Completing this course will provide you with a solid grasp of conduction heat transfer to understand the essentials that you need to start solving problems related to this field. Whether you are a student of science or engineering or simply an enthusiast with a passion for Thermophysics this course will expand your knowledge and provide practical applications.
