Course Details
• Fundamentals of Thermal Modeling: An introduction to the basics of thermal modeling, including heat transfer principles and the governing equations.
• Conduction Theory: A deep dive into conduction, one of the three modes of heat transfer. Topics include Fourier's law, thermal conductivity, and steady-state and transient conduction.
• Convection Theory: An exploration of convection, another mode of heat transfer. Topics include forced and natural convection, boundary layers, and convective heat transfer coefficients.
• Radiation Theory: A study of radiation, the third mode of heat transfer. Topics include blackbody radiation, radiation view factors, and radiation heat transfer coefficients.
• Numerical Methods for Thermal Modeling: An overview of the numerical methods used to solve thermal problems, including finite difference, finite volume, and finite element methods.
• Advanced Thermal Modeling Techniques: An examination of advanced techniques for thermal modeling, including multidimensional modeling, nonlinear problems, and coupled problems.
• Thermal Modeling Software: A survey of the software used for thermal modeling, including ANSYS, COMSOL, and Abaqus. This unit will cover the basics of using these tools to create and solve thermal models.
• Experimental Validation of Thermal Models: A discussion on the importance of validating thermal models with experimental data. Topics include designing experiments, collecting data, and comparing experimental results with model predictions.
