Course Objectives
MAE 311 serves to introduce the student to the many different processes by which
energy may be transferred. A list of the specific topics is provided in the attached
Assignment Schedule. In covering this material, there should be three overriding objectives:
(a)
The student should appreciate the physical origins of the various transport
mechanisms. Moreover, when confronted with a particular problem, (s)he should be
able to identify the relevant transport processes.
(b)
The student should be able to perform engineering calculations for problems
involving heat transfer. (S)he should know when, and of what nature, simplifying
approximations may be made. (S)he should also be able to perform the kinds of
calculations which lead to a rational design and/or an improved understanding of the
performance of thermal exchange systems.
(c)
A final, yet equally important objective is to develop a positive attitude towards the
subject of heat transfer. It is incumbent upon the instructor to reveal the vital role
that such processes play in the natural and industrial worlds and to thereby transmit a
sense of excitement for the subject.
The student should leave the course with confidence in his/her understanding of, and
ability to apply, the basic principles. (S)he should also leave with a desire to apply what (s)he
has learned and to expand upon his/her background.

COURSE POLICY - SPRING 2014
1.
Prerequisites. MAE 311 must be preceded by MAE 221. If you do not meet this
requirement, see your Lecturer immediately.
2.
Assignments. You are expected to fulfill each assignment in the following manner:
(a) The Lecturer will only highlight the materials corresponding to a particular
period and work illustrative problems. You will do the reading corresponding to a
particular period before the scheduled lecture for that period.
(b) Since your Lecturer will constantly be referring to material in the text, you should
bring the text to class.
(c) Homework should be submitted at the beginning of the class on the designated
due date. See page 4 for an example of homework solution format. You should
follow this format in solving all your assigned homework problems. Homework
problems submitted will be graded and returned to you at the end of the following
lecture. All problem solutions will be posted on the webpage of MAE 311
immediately after they are due for your further study.
3.
Quizzes. Class quizzes of duration of 10 minutes may be given periodically in the
lecture, generally without prior announcement, in order to highlight key points and to
promote individual participation in the lecture. Each of these may involve material
from reading or homework assigned for the lecture or material developed during the
lecture. These will be graded and returned to you in lecture. Remember to bring a
calculator to each lecture.
4.
Midterm Exam. The exam will be given on the scheduled dates and will cover all
assigned material. No make-up exam will be given except in the event of excusable
absences due to illness or serious emergency. The exam is of open-book nature.
5.
Final Examination. A final examination, given at the end of the course, will cover all
material assigned through the course. No make-up exam will be given except in the
event of excusable absences due to illness or serious emergency. It is of open-book
nature.
6.
Attendance. Classroom attendance is expected except in cases of illness,
emergencies, or other special circumstances. Your attendance will be checked at the
beginning of the class. Two tardy counts will be considered as one absence. In case of
an absence, a written or email notice should be submitted to the lecturer. You will be
held responsible for any material which is discussed in lecture, whether treated in the
text or not. There will be no opportunity for make-up of missed assignments in the
daily work (homework and exercises) except in cases of long term illness or serious
emergency.

7.
Participation. You are encouraged to ask questions during the lecture regarding
aspects of reading, homework or lecture material that is unclear to you. In addition,
you may be called upon to answer questions, to comment on problem solutions,
and/or lead discussions related to the lecture material. Demonstrating reasonable
participation will require daily preparation and staying current with the assignments.
8.
Grades. The course grade will be based on homework, exercise, participation and
exam results. The following list gives the weighting of the various items to be used
in the determination of grades for the course:
Homework Problems
Class Quizzes, Attendance and Participation
Mid-Term Test
Final Examination
Total
20%
10%
30%
40%
_______
100%
NOTE: Every two missed lectures would result in lowering your grade by one level.
Suppose your original grade is A+. If you missed two lectures, your final grade would
be lowered to A0. If you missed four lectures, your final grade would be lowered to
A-.
9.
Unethical Conduct. Communication between students in solving the homework
problems is encouraged. However, each student is expected to do his/her own work
in satisfying the homework problem requirements, and failure to do so will result in a
grade of zero for the assignment. Any student caught copying from a solution manual
will have his/her grade reduced by a full letter grade for each separate incident. Any
student detected of cheating on an examination will receive a failing grade in the
course, and related documentation will be sent to the Dean of Students Office,
recommending termination from the University for a period of no less than one year.

Work problems on engineering paper, one problem to a sheet
HOME WORK SOLUTION
EXAMPLE PAGE
KNOWN:
State concisely what is known about the problem.
FIND:
State concisely what must be found.
SCHEMATIC:
Draw a schematic of the physical system being considered. Label important variables. If
application of the conservation laws is anticipated, represent the appropriate control volume
or control surfaces by dashed lines. Be sure to identify processes associated with control
volume/surfaces.
PROPERTIES:
List the solid and/or fluid thermophysical properties used in your solution. Identify the table
from the Text and especially the temperature at which the property was selected.
ASSUMPTIONS:
It is important that you put all the assumptions in one place so that they can be reviewed. At
the outset, some assumptions may be obvious, like “steady-state conditions,” etc. But as you
begin to model more complicated systems, the assumptions are extremely important to the
logic of your analysis.
ANALYSIS:
Provide in sentence format, comments that make clear the logic and organization of your
analysis. Be sure to identify by numbers any figures or equations taken from the Text.
