Convective Heat Transfer

Overview Governing Equations: Continuity, Momentum and Energy Equations and their derivations in different coordinate systems, Boundary layer Approximations to momentum and energy - Laminar External flow and heat transfer: (a) Similarity solutions for flat plate (Blasius solution), flows with pressure gradient (Falkner-Skan and Eckert solutions), and flow with transpiration, (b) Integral method solutions for flow over an isothermal flat plate, flat plate with constant heat flux and with varying surface temperature (Duhamels method), flows with pressure gradient (von Karman-Pohlhausen method)
