Resource Persons Faculty from various prestigious Institutions and Faculty from Host Institution . About the Training programme The proposed STTP is an interdisciplinary programme which will bring together the faculties from engineering disciplines, Industries, faculties from Science colleges & Universities. This will be greatly benefited in providing conceptual understanding, computational & procedural fluency and problem solving skills. The broad scope brings together a wide range of research areas in mathematics and allied fields such as numerical methods, fluid dynamics, heat and mass transfer, computational fluid dynamics, nano technology, Newtonian and nonnewtonian fluids and any other engineering application etc. This STTP course is designed to be a core course in heat and mass transfer. Concepts including conservation of laws, conduction, laminar and turbulent convection, phase change and radiation will be discussed and applied. The course is open to participants from all areas of engineering and sciences. This Training programme will focus on a presentation and discussion of analytical, numerical and experimental methods used in the study of the fundamental research and application in convective heat and mass transfer.
