CBE 30356 - Transport Phenomena II: Heat & Mass Transfer

Schedule

• Class

  TTh 9:30AM - 10:45PM. DBTL 126
  
  

• Teaching Approach

  Narrated lecture notes will be provided for each class. Each of these will be available through the class website. Students are to view the notes and complete a short quiz for each class on Canvas. Students get two tries at the quiz before class (the higher score counts) and one try after class. The cumulative quiz score will count the same as the mid-term. The in-person class session will be reserved for answering questions, running demonstrations, and help with homework assignments. We will also solve a "problem of the day" selected to illuminate the topic of the day's lecture.

Instructor

• D. T. Leighton

  Office hours are 6:30 - 7:30 pm MTWTh or by appointment, via Zoom

Textbooks

• The course website at https://www3.nd.edu/~dtl/cbe30356/cbe30356.html
  
  
• The course notes. A complete pdf is available on the class website together with the narrated lecture for each class.
  
  
• The glossary of terms. This is reference material for Transport I, but as the two classes are very closely related, it should prove useful this term as well!
  
  
• A detailed set of notes and narrations on the key mathematical techniques used in solving transport problems. A link to this Transport Math page is also on the class website.
  
  
• R. B. Bird, W. E. Stewart and E. N. Lightfoot, Transport phenomena, New York, Wiley, 2006. This is an update of -the- classic text on transport phenomena. Although at a high level, it provides excellent development and applications of the microscopic equations governing transport. The international version is fine for this class.
