Spring 2026 Laboratory Lecture Recitation Distance Learning Upper DivisionMacroscopic and differential energy balances. Heat transfer coefficients for free and forced convection and phase change. Conductive and radiative heat transfer. Applications to heat transfer equipment design and compressible fluid flow. Macroscopic and differential species balances. Mass transfer coefficients and analogies. Mass transfer with and without chemical reaction. Mass transfer equipment design.
Learning Outcomes1Identify and explain the three mechanisms of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.
2Apply microscopic and macroscopic thermal energy balances incorporating Fourier's Law for the solution of problems describing steady-state and transient conduction, including convective heat transfer.
3Utilize mass and thermal energy balances for the design of heat transfer equipment and the analysis of its operation.
4Identify and explain the two main mechanisms of mass transfer: convection and diffusion.
5Apply microscopic and macroscopic species mass balances incorporating Fick's Law for the solution of problems describing steady-state and transient diffusion, including relevant rate equations and convective mass transfer.
6Identify and apply the analogies between momentum, heat, and mass transfer.
7Utilize mass balances and appropriate phase equilibrium relations for the design of continuous mass transfer equipment and the analysis of its operation.
8Work professionally and ethically in teams to conduct heat and mass transfer-based laboratory experiments.
9Effectively report results in written form and practice safety as an integral part of laboratory work.
