Colorado State Univ.: Heat Transfer Resistance Modeling

Curated by ACT

This site from the Colorado State University discusses the tranfer of heat by conduction and convection. Discussion centers around the application of these two heat transfer mechanisms to engines. The variables that effect the resistance to heat flow are explained. Includes graphics, explanations, and equations.
