Lecture Unit: Introduction to Heat Transfer with Ansys Discovery

This lecture covers basic concepts of heat transfer and thermal analysis, particularly focusing on conduction and convection problems. A comparison of analytical and numerical solutions (in Ansys Discovery) for simple heat transfer problems has been carried out. It also discusses more complex and realistic scenarios of conjugate heat transfer simulations. 

Learning Outcomes

  • Knowledge and understanding of basic heat transfer modes​
  • Ability to use Ansys Discovery to set-up simple heat transfer problems​
  • Awareness of importance of simulation in engineering problems
