Course Overview
Convective heat transfer is a very important physical phenomenon that finds its relevance in a wide variety of applications including micro/nanoscale systems to mega-scale systems like nuclear reactors. It is observed in metallurgical and chemical industries and is an important part of the school and college curriculum. Convective Heat Transfer: Fundamentals and Applications Certification by SWAYAM is a first-level, postgraduate course on Convective Heat Transfer.
The modules have been so structured so as to start from the basics of the topic and proceed to methods and concepts that are generally seen in a PG curriculum. A powerful technique termed scaling is first taught to students that are typically covered in an undergraduate course. This has been done to teach learners why a particular correlation has a particular form. Further, the course gives a brief of the solution methodologies - Similarity method and Integral method that are quite powerful solution methods for many different problems.
Natural Convection has also been dealt with quite extensively in the Convective Heat Transfer: Fundamentals and Applications Certification programme. An encapsulated version of Two-Phase heat transfer is also presented in some modules. A part of the course also focuses on applications.
