Rationale:

Most of the Chemical Engineering operations will involve either heat addition or heat removal in one way or the other. It is, therefore, extremely necessary to have good understanding about the heat transfer mechanisms. This subject enables the students to apply this knowledge for understanding the performances of various heat transfer equipment such as heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators etc. used in almost all chemical and related industries

Learning Outcomes:

After the completion of this course, the students will be able to:

  • Understand basic laws of heat transfer
  • Analyze problems involving steady heat conduction in simple geometries.
  • Understand the concept of convective heat transfer and to analyze the problems involving heat transfer coefficients for natural and forced convection
  • Analyze heat exchanger performance using LMTD and use it for parallel or counter flow
  • Recognizer various type of heat exchanger working principle, and basic geometries of heat exchanger.
  • Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient for a heat exchanger.
  • Understand the concept of boiling and condenser
  • Analyze the performance of evaporator
