(http://me.cramster.com/fundamentals-of-heat-and-mass-transfer-17-69.aspx)

Description:
Steady and unsteady conduction; force and natural convection; surface and gaseous radiation; condensation and evaporation; analytical and numerical methods and applications.

Prerequisites: 058:045. required knowledge in basic heat transfer, basic fluid mechanics, ordinary and partial differential equations, and calculus or college mathematics.

Objectives:
After accomplishing this course, students should be able to shape their knowledge in heat and mass transfer, transport phenomena, thermal systems, computation and methods used in heat transfer problems.

Grading:
Homework and computer Assignments 50%, Midterm Exam 25%, Final Exam 25%).

Policy on Assignments:
A number of computer assignments will be given throughout the semester. These assignments require the student to solve various problems in algorithms. Students are encouraged to the instructor. Delay of handing in assigned homework are not acceptable.

In working the assignments, each student must work on his/her own homework or projects. - under no circumstances may any part of a homework or projects be copied (electronically or manually) from one student to another. Failure to follow this rule will be treated as academic misconduct and proper disciplinary actions will be initiated.

I need to hear from anyone who has a disability which may require some modification of seating, testing or other class requirements so that appropriate arrangements may be made. Please see me after class or during my office hours.
