Unit IV
EQUATIONS OF CHANGE AND THEIR APPLICATIONS 9
Momentum: Equations of continuity, motion and mechanical energy (Isothermal), Energy: Equation of energy (non-isothermal). Mass: Equations of change (multi-component), equations of continuity for each species, equation of energy (multi-component). Solutions of momentum, heat and mass transfer problems discussed under shell balance by applications of equation of change, dimensional analysis of equations of change.
Unit V
TRANSPORT IN TURBULENT FLOWS AND ANALOGIES 9
Comparison of laminar and turbulent flows, time-smoothed equations of change, empirical expressions. Comparison of laminar and turbulent hydrodynamics, thermal and concentration boundary layer and their thicknesses. Development and applications of analogies between momentum, heat and mass transfer.
Course Outcomes:
On the completion of the course students are expected to
- Understand the mechanisms of momentum, heat and mass transfer each at molecular, micro and macro levels.
- Develop mathematical models to determine transfer fluxes and velocity, temperature and concentration distribution for flow channels, heat sources and systems involving diffusion and reactions.
- Determine the interrelationship between the molecular, microscopic and macroscopic descriptions of transport processes and compare the various coordinate systems to formulate equations of change.
- Apply the equation of change for different coordinate systems and solve of momentum, mass and heat transport problems.
- Apply the concepts of dimensional analysis and scale factors for equation of change for different coordinate systems and analyze the analogy between the transports and understand the turbulence and boundary layer concept in heat and mass transport.
