Chet-106 Abet Syllabus

This course introduces students to the basics of heat transfer, including the laws and mechanisms of steady state heat transfer. Students will learn to perform calculations related to conduction, convection and radiation, and apply these concepts to process equipment like heat exchangers, boilers and condensers. The course includes both theoretical lectures and laboratory experiments to reinforce the concepts. Students are expected to understand heat transfer mechanisms, make heat transfer calculations, describe common heat exchanger types and their operating problems, and conduct experiments presenting results through tables and graphs.
