3. Modes of heat transfer
Conduction:
HT due to particle inreaction alone. No bulk movement
Convection:
HT due to actual movement of bulk of fluid
Radiation:
HT by electromegnatic waves (photons). Require no medium
3. Modes of heat transfer
Conduction
Fourier‘s law of heat conduction:
The rate of heat conduction through a plane layer is proportional to the temperature difference across the layer and the heat transfer area, but is inversely proportional to the thickness of the layer.
That is,
Heat conduction rate α (A·ΔT)/(Δx)
Where, ΔT = (T2 ̶ T1)
3. Modes of heat transfer
Thermal conductivity (k):Rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of material per unit area per unit degree rise in temperature.
o k is a measure of material‘s ability to conduct heat
e.g. for water, k = 0.608 (W/m·°C) at room T
and for iron, k = 80.2 (W/m·°C) at room T
o Higher value of k indicative of good condutor
o Lower value of k is indicative of poor conductor or good onsulator

3. Modes of heat transfer
Thermal diffusivity (α):Thermal diffusivity of a material can be viewed as the ratio of theheat conducted through the material to the heat stored per unitvolume.
α = (Heat conducted)/(Heat stored)
α = k/(ρ CP)
Larger value of thermal diffusivity indicates faster propogation of heat through the material

3. Modes of heat transfer
Convection
Rate of convective heat transfer between a solid surface and adjacent fluid is given by Newton’s law of cooling.
Heat convection rate = hA (Ts ̶ Tf)
Where, h = Heat transfer or film coefficient given in (W/m2·°C)
