HEAT TRANSFER

OBJECTIVES FOR HEAT TRANSFER PROCESSES:
1. The aim of the course is to provide the fundamental theory for the analysis of heat
transfer processes occurring in boilers, condensers, cooling towers and furnaces.
2. This course will seek to quantify heat transfer processes in various systems
3. Define various terminologies employed in heat transfer processes.
4. Describe physical principles involved in heat transfer
5. Describe heat transport phenomena in various systems of interests
6. Analyse models and behaviour of local and overall heat transfer coefficients

Communication skills course teaches effective information conveyance, active listening, clear articulation, and persuasive communication. The word communication is used to mean speaking or writing or sending a message to another person. Communication is really much more than that. It involves ensuring that your message reaches the target audience and that the receiver understands and responds to the message appropriately. Communication is an important aspect of behaviour; human communication is affected by all factors that influence human behaviour.

This course provides students with the basics of computers and their application in business. It exposes students to the operating system, input devices, output devices and storage units and their interrelationships. Computing is any goal-oriented activity requiring, benefiting from, or creating computing machinery. It includes the study and experimentation of algorithmic processes, and the development of both hardware and software. Computing has scientific, engineering, mathematical, technological, and social aspects.

This course provides a foundational introduction to computer programming, focusing on problem-solving, algorithm development, and fundamental programming concepts. Students will learn to write, test, and debug code using a high-level programming language such as Python. Topics include variables, data types, control structures (loops and conditionals), functions, data structures (lists, dictionaries), and basic file handling. The course emphasizes logical thinking, structured programming, and hands-on practice through coding exercises and projects. By the end of the course, students will have the skills to write simple programs and understand key programming principles applicable to various computing disciplines.
