Duration: 150 minutes

Topics covered: conduction, convection, radiation, including basic numerical solution methods (finite difference)

Closed book. A handwritten or typed formula sheet (US letter, 2-sided) is allowed. Tables of material properties, convection correlations, coefficients, series solutions, etc. will be provided, if necessary. Calculator allowed.

Recommended textbook: Incropera, DeWitt: Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer, 5th ed., Wiley.  ISBN: 978-0-471-38650-6

 Part 1:

multiple choice questions, addressing the understanding of heat transfer mechanisms and their interplay.

 Part 2:

three applied problems, covering the mechanisms of conduction, convection, and radiation. Each question will focus on a particular heat transfer mechanism but may overlap with others (e.g. thermal radiation from an object which is also subjected to convection).
