Introduction
1.1 Definition:
Heat: is the energy transit as a result of the temperature difference.
Heat transfer: is that science which seeks to predict the energy
transfer that may take place between material bodes as a result of a
temperature difference
Heat flux: heat transfer flow in the direction per unit area (q”).
Steady state: Temperature does not vary with time (dT/dt) =0.
Unsteady state: temperature is depending on time
1.2 Modes of Heat Transfer
There are three fundamental modes of heat transfer
-conduction,
- convection, and
-radiation.
1.3 A Conduction Heat Transfer
Conduction may be viewed as the transfer of energy from
the more energetic to the less energetic particles of a substance due
to interactions between the particles. A temperature gradient within a
homogeneous substance results in an energy transfer rate within the
medium which can be calculated by Fourier's law
1
q= -KA
( 1-1)
Where q is the heat transfer rate (W or J/s) and k thermal
conductivity (W/m K)) is an experimental constant for the medium
involved, and it may depend upon other properties, such as
temperature and pressure.

Is the temperature gradient in the direction normal to the area
A.
Figure 1.1 Temperature distributions for steady state conduction
through a plate wall
The minus sign in Fourier's Law ((1.1)) is required by the second law
of thermodynamics: thermal energy transfer resulting from a thermal
gradient must be from a warmer to a colder region. If the temperature
profile within the medium is linear Fig. 1.1 it is permissible to replace the
temperature gradient (partial derivative) with
q= -KA
(1.2)
2
The quantity (L/kA) is equivalent to a thermal resistance Rth (K/W)
which is equal to the reciprocal of the conductance. As:
q=
, Rt =
(1-3)
Such linearity always exists in a homogeneous medium of fixed k during
steady state heat transfer occurs whenever the temperature at every
point within the body, including the surfaces, is independent of time.

energy due to molecular activity.

1-3-1 The Energy Balance
In this special case the control surface includes no mass or
volume and appears as shown in Figure 1.8.Accordingly, the
generation and storage terms of the Energy expression,
Ein –Eout -Storage + Generation= 0
Consequently, there can be no generation and storage. The
conservation requirement then becomes
Ein –Eout = 0
In Figure 1.8 three heat transfer terms are shown for the control
surface. On a unit area basis they are conduction from the medium
to the control surface q"cond convection from the surface to a
fluid q"conv, and net radiation exchange from the surface to the
surroundings q"rad. The energy balance then takes the Form and
we can express each of the terms according to the appropriate rate
equations.

1-3-2 GENERAL EQUATION OF HEAT CONDACTION
We now set ourselves the problem of determining the basic equation that
governs the transfer of heat in a solid, using Equation ((1-1)) as a starting
point.
Consider the one-dimensional
dimensional system shown in Figure 1-4.. If the
system is in a steady state, i.e., if the temperature does not change with time,
then the problem is a simple one, and we need only integrate Equation ((1-1)
and substitute the appropriate values to solve for the desired quantity.
However, if the temperature of the solid is changing with time, or if there are
heat sources or sinks within the solid, the situation is more complex. We
consider the general case where the temperature may be changing with time
and heat sources may be present within the body. For the element of
thickness dx, the following energy balance may be made:
Energy conducted in left face
ace + heat generated within element= change in
internal energy + energy conducted out right face
5
These energy quantities are given as follows:
Energy in left face = q= −kA
Energy generated within element =
.

where the quantity α = k/ρc is called the thermal diffusivity of the material.
The larger the value of α, the faster heat will diffuse through the material.
Thermal diffusivity α has units of square meters per second.
Equation (1-4a)
a) may be transformed into either cylindrical or spherical
coordinates by standard calculus techniques. The results are as follows:
it is worthwhile to show the reduced form of the general equations for
several cases of practical interest.

1.4 Convection Heat Transfer
Whenever a solid body is exposed to a moving fluid
having a temperature different from that of the body, energy is carried
12
or convected from or to the body by the fluid If the upstream
temperature of the fluid is T , and the surface temperature of the solid is
Ts the heat transfer per unit time is given by Newton s Law of cooling:
q= h A (
-
∞)
(1-9)
2
Where h is Convective Heat transfer coefficient (W/m K) as the
constant of proportionality relating the heat transfer per unit time and
area to the overall temperature difference. It is important to keep in
mind that the fundamental energy

Example: A glass window of width W= 1 m and height H=2 m is 5 mm
thick and has a thermal conductivity of kg = 1.4 w/m .k . If the inner and
outer surface temperatures of the glass are 15⁰C and -20⁰C,
C, respectively, on
19
a cold winter day, what is the rate of heat loss through the glass? To reduce
heat loss through windows, it is customary to use a double pane construction
in which adjoining panes are separated by an air space. If the spacing is 10
mm and the glass surfaces in contact with the air have temperatures of 10⁰C
10
and -15 ⁰C,
C, what is the rate of heat loss from a 1 m x 2 m window? The
thermal conductivity of air is ka =
=0.024 W/m.k
20
Example:- what is the thickness required of a masonry wall having thermal
conductivity 0.75 w/m. k if the heat rate is to be 80% of the heat rate through
a composite structural wall having a thermal conductivity of 0.25 w/m. k and
a thickness of 100 mm? Both walls are subjected to the same surface
temperature difference.
21
Example: - At a given instant of time the temperature distribution within an
infinite homogenous body is given by the function
22
T(x, y, z) = x2 – 2 y2 + z2 – x y + 2 y z
Assuming constant properties and no internal heat generation, determine the
regions where the temperature changes with time.

Example 1-1 Conduction through copper plate

convection heat – transfer coefficient is 25 W/m2 .C0 .calculate the heat

Solution
From Newton,s law of cooling
q = hA (Tw -

Example 1-3 Multimode heat transfer
Assuming that the plate in example 1-2 is made of carbon steel ( 1% ) 2
cm thick and that 300 W is lost from the plate surface by radiation. Calculate
the inside plate temperature.
Solution
The heat conducted through the plate must be equal to the sum of convection

C0. and the water temperature will be 100 C0. How much electric power
must be supplied to the wire to maintain the wire surface at 114 C0?
Solution
The total convection loss is given by
Q = h A (Tw -
∞
)
For this the surface area of the wire is
A = π d L = π ( 1× 10 )(10 × 10
The heat transfer is therefore
q =( 5000 w/m2. C0)( .142 × 10
) =3.142 × 10
m2
m2 )( 114 -100 ) = 21.99 W
and this is equal to the electric power which must be applied.
Example 1-5 Radiation heat transfer
Tow infinite black plates at 800 and 300 C0 exchange heat by radiation.
Calculate the heat transfer per unit area.
Solution
q/A =σ (T14 – T24 ) =( 5.669 × 10 ) (10734 -5734 ) = 69.03 KW/m3
26
Example 1-6 total heat loss by convection and radiation
A horizontal steel pipe having a diameter of 5 cm is maintained at a
temperature of 50 C0 in a large room where the air and wall temperature are
at 20 C0. The surface emissivity of the steel may be taken as 0.8. Using the
data of table 2 calculate the total heat lost by the pipe per unit length.
Solution The total heat loss is the sum of convection and radiation. From
table 2 we see that an estimate for the heat- transfer coefficient for free
convection with this geometry and air is h=6.5 w/m2 . C0. The surface area
is πdL, so the convection loss per unit length is
q/L]conv =h(πd )( Tw -
∞
)= (6.5)( π)(50-20) = 30.63 w/m
this pipe is a body surrounded by a large enclosure so the radiation heat
transfer can be calculated from this equation
q/L]rad =ε1(πd1)σ (T14 – T24 ) = (0.8 )( π )( 0.05) ( 5.669× 10 ) (3234
– 2934) = 25.04 w/m
the total heat loss is therefore
q/L]tot =
q/L]conv +
q/L]rad =30.63 +25.04 =55.67 w/m
In this example we see that the convection and radiation are about the same.
To neglect either would be a serious mistake.

In Fig. 1.9 for a three-layer

and from Eq. (1.1) we get
Eliminating the intermediate temperatures T2 and T3 in Eq. qk can be
expressed in the form
Similarly, for N layers in series we have
surface temperature of layer 1 and TN+1 is the

outer- surface temperature of layer N. and ∆T is the overall
temperature difference, often called the temperature potential.

K) as shown in Fig. The inner-surface
surface temperature is 900 K and the

1.7.2 Plane Walls in Parallel
Conduction can occur in a section with two different materials in
parallel between the same poten al. Fig. 1.18 shows a slab with two
different materials of areas AA and AB in parallel. If the temperatures over
the left and right faces are uniform
orm at T1 and T2, the total rate of heat flow is
the sum of the flows through AA and AB:
38
Note that the total heat transfer area is the sum of AA and AB
and that the total resistance equals the product of the individual
resistancess divided by their sum, as in any parallel circuit. A more complex
applica on of the thermal network approach is illustrated in Fig. 1.19,
where heat is transferred through a composite structure involving
thermal resistances in series and in parallel. For this system the resistance
of the middle layer, R2 becomes and the rate of heat flow is

of 10 W/m2 K. Calculate the rate

The heat that is conducted through a body must frequently be
removed (or delivered) by some convection process. Obviously, an analysis
of combined conduction-convection systems is very important from a
practical standpoint. Extended surfaces have wide industrial application as
fins attached to the walls of heat transfer equipment in order to increase the
rate of heating or cooling q = h As (Ts- T∞). Fins come in many shapes and
forms, some of which are shown below:
86
Consider a pin fin having the shape of a rod whose base is attached to a
wall at surface temperature Ts. The fin is cooled along its surface by a fluid at
temperature T∞ To derive an equation for temperature distribution, we make
a heat balance for a small element of the fin. Heat flows by conduction into
the left face of the element, while heat flows out of the element by
conduction through the right face and by convection from the surface.
Assumptions
1. The fin has a uniform cross-sectional area
2. The fin is made of a material having uniform conductivity (k = constant)

flow is constant, the ∆T across each element must be the same within the same heat
heat-flow
lane. Thus the ∆T across an element is given by
by:
where N is the number of temperature increments betwee
between the inner and outer surfaces.
Furthermore, the heat flow through each lane is the same since it is independent of the
dimensions ∆x and ∆y when they are constructed equal. Thus we write for the total heat
transfer
where M is the number of heat-flow lanes. So, to calculate the heat transfer, we need only construct
these curvilinear-square
square plots and count the number of temperature increments and heat-flow
flow lanes.
Care must be taken to construct the plot so that ∆x ≈ ∆y and the lines are perpendicular. For the corner
section shown in Figure 3-3a the number of temperature increments between the inner and outer
surfaces is about N = 4,, while the number of heat flow lanes for the corner section may be estimated as
M =8.2. The total number of heat-flow lanes is four times this value, or 4×8.2=32.8.. The ratio M/N is
thus 32.8/4=8.2 for the whole wall section. This ratio will be called the conduction shape factor in
subsequent discussions.
3-4 THE CONDUCTION SHAPE FACTOR
The values of S have been worked out for several geometries and are summarized in
Table 3-1
Table 3-1 Conduction shape factors, summarized from References 6 and 7.
Note: For buried objects the temperature difference is ∆T =Tobject −Tfar field. The far-field
temperature is taken the same as the isothermal surface temperature for semi
semi-infinite
infinite media.

For a three-dimensional
dimensional wall, as in a furnace, separate shape factors are used to calculate the heat flow
through the edge and corner sections, with the dimensions shown in Figure 3-4. When all the interior
dimensions are greater than one-fifth
fifth of the wall thickness,

NUMERICAL METHOD OFANALYSIS
In many practical situations the geometry or boundary conditions are such that an analytical
solution has not been obtained at all, or if the solution has been developed, it involves such a complex
series solution that numerical evaluation becomes exceedingly difficult. For such situations the most
fruitful approach to the problem is one based on finite-difference techniques, the basic
principles of which we shall outline in this section.
Consider a two-dimensional
dimensional body that is to be divided into equal increments in both the
x and y directions, as shown in Figure 3-5.
The nodal points are designated as shown, the m locations indicating the x increment and
the n locations indicating the y increment. We wish to establish the temperatures at any of
these nodal points within the body, using Equation ((3-1)) as a governing condition. Finite differences
are used to approximate differential increments in the temperature and space coordinates; and the
smaller we choose these finite increments, the more closely the true temperature
distribution will be approximated
138
Equation (3-24) states very simply that the net heat flow into any node is zero at steady-state
conditions.

Unsteady- State Condition
To analyze a transient heat-transfer problem, we could proceed by solving the general heat conduction
equation by the separation-of-variables method, similar to the analytical
treatment used for the two-dimensional steady-state problem
Consider the infinite plate of thickness 2L shown in Figure 4-1. Initially the plate is at a uniform
temperature Ti, and at time zero the surfaces are suddenly lowered to T =T1. The differential equation
is

This solution will be presented in graphical form for calculation purposes.
LUMPED-HEAT-CAPACITY SYSTEM
We continue our discussion of transient heat conduction by analyzing systems that may be
Considered
- uniform in temperature. This type of analysis is called the lumped-heat-capacity method.
Such systems are obviously idealized because a temperature gradient must exist in a material if heat is
to be conducted into or out of the material. In general,
- the smaller the physical size of the body, the more realistic the assumption of a uniform
temperature throughout.
-If the resistance to heat transfer by conduction were small compared with the convection
resistance at the surface, so that the major temperature gradient would occur through the fluid layer
at the surface. The lumped-heat-capacity analysis, then, is one that assumes that the internal resistance
of the body is negligible in comparison with the external resistance. The convection heat loss from the
body is evidenced as a decrease in the internal energy of the body, as shown in Figure 4-2. Thus,

where Te is the temperature of the convection environment. The thermal network for the singlecapacity system is shown in Figure 4-2b. In this network we notice that the thermal capacity of the
system is “charged” initially at the potential T0 by closing the switch S.
Then, when the switch is opened, the energy stored in the thermal capacitance is dissipated through the
resistance 1/hA. The analogy between this thermal system and an electric system is apparent, and we
could easily construct an electric system that would behave exactly like the thermal system as long as
we made the ratio
The quantity c ρV/hA is called the time constant of the system because it
has the dimensions of time. When
it is noted that the temperature difference T −T∞ has a value of 36.8 percent of the initial difference
T0 −T∞.
