Summary

Theory of similarity, criterion equations. Flow: statics and dynamics of fluids, flow of real fluids, pressure losses, flow of gases in furnace systems. Conduction heat transfer: analytical and numerical solution of steady and unsteady problems. Convection heat transfer: natural, forced, heat transfer between fluid and solid body. Radiation heat transfer: general laws, radiation properties of bodies, exchange of radiation energy between solid bodies, radiation of gases, vapours and their mixtures.
