With complete coverage of the basic principles of heat transfer and a broad range of applications in a flexible format, Heat and Mass Transfer: Fundamentals and Applications, by Yunus Cengel and Afshin Ghajar provides the perfect blend of fundamentals and applications. The text provides a highly intuitive and practical understanding of the material by emphasizing the physics and the underlying physical phenomena involved. This text covers the standard topics of heat transfer with an emphasis on physics and real-world every day applications, while de-emphasizing mathematical aspects. This approach is designed to take advantage of students' intuition, making the learning process easier and more engaging.
McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, is also available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.

The unit develop students' fundamental grasp of the concepts related to heat transfer. These phenomena are ubiquitous in mechanical engineering so a good understanding of them is essential for students to confidently progress to the higher stages of learning and in their future engineering career. This unit builds on material presented in ENG212 Thermal and Fluid Engineering covering more advanced topics in energy transfer and conversion. This provides students a broad range of industrial engineering thermal systems, with an emphasis placed on distinguishing between energy quality and quantity.

This product development research project proposes a simplified novel methodology to design a thermo-electric generation (TEG) system. The iterative designs of complete assembly were prepared with the aid of Solidworks and the subsequent FEM analysis was aided by ANSYS fluent and transient thermal workbenches. The combustion chamber was subjected to a computational fluid dynamic study to generate flame profiles and to establish the temperature gradient distribution along the vertical length of inner surface of cylindrical chamber. The results of CFD analysis were then transported to the transient thermal workbench to calculate the charging time of whole system, which indeed founds the issues related to starting fuel efficiency of the system. A section model of the assembly was used to conduct the transient heat transfer analysis. The final results showed that after formation of a steady temperature gradient at the inner surface, the time required to completely charge up the system to achieve steady state came to be 30 minutes, which was found to be in good agreement with the operational constraints. Also, the temperature differences obtained between the hot and cold sides of TEG MARS modules were well within the safe limits. NOx emissions were also plotted and analysed.
