STEADY & UNSTEADY STATE HEAT TRANSFER
HEAT TRANSFER WHAT IS HEAT TRANSFER ? Heat transfer is a form of energy transmit due to temperature difference . Heat transfer is a transmission of energy from one region to another region as a result of temperature difference Heat is a path function . heat flow from high temperature to lower temperature transfer heat high body to lower body STEADY STATE HEAT TRANSFER There is no change in heat transfer with time at any point in a direction within the medium dQ/dT = 0 , here Q is heat transfer In this case of energy transfer the temperature is only function of space-coordinate , not a function of time, mathematically for rectangular coordinate system T=f(x,y,z) for example of steady state heat transfer Heat exchanger with fluid flow Heat generation due to electric current UNSTEADY STATE HEAT TRANSFER Change in heat transfer at any point with time in direction within the medium is called as unsteady heat transfer Q is heat transfer is not equal to zero In this cas...
