Course Evaluation Guideline of the course Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer

The course Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer will run for twelve weeks. The course material consists of around 36 video lectures (3 lectures per week) and 12 assignments (1 assignment per week). The assignments are all MCQs and you can submit those on-line. At the end of this course, there will be one final examination. Final examination will be an on-line exam comprising of MCQs.  

The evaluation will be based on both the assignments performance and performance in the final examination. The weightage on assignment performance and final examination is given below:

                                         40% on assignment performance

                                         60% on final examination performance.

Please note that if total 12 assignments (1 assignment per week) are given to you during this course then only best 6 assignments will be taken as your assignment performance.

Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer Week 1 Videos Available

Welcome Students!

We will start our course on Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer form today (January 18, 2016). In week 1, we have THREE VIDEO LECTURES. Please find the videos in the course outline section of the portal under Week 1. The first two lectures describe the introductory concepts of conduction and convection heat transfer. The second lecture is solely devoted to the complete mathematical derivation of the general form of heat conduction equation.

Go through the video lectures in detail. If you face any difficulty in understanding any concept or derivation, please feel free to ask questions in the forum.

Welcome to NPTEL Online Course: Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer

Dear Students

Welcome to NPTEL Online Courses and Certification!

We would like to thank you for signing up for the online course "Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer". We wish you an enjoyable and informative learning experience.

The course will begin on January 18 2016. The introductory video which describes the course has been unloaded. Please watch this video where Prof. Suman Chakraborty has talked about the motivation of the present course. Below we give a summary of the introductory video:

"The subject Conduction and Convection Heat Transfer has a wide scope and is of prime importance in almost all fields of engineering and biological systems. The course emphasizes the underlying concepts of the conduction and convection modes of heat transfer and enumerates the laws and governing equations relating to the rates of heat transfer, based on derivation from fundamentals. There is a well balanced coverage of physical concepts, mathematical operations along with examples and exercise problems of practical importance. After completion of the course, the students will have a strong foundation on conduction and convection heat transfer and will be able to apply the basic principles, the laws, and the pertinent equations to practical scenarios." 

First few video lectures will be unloaded soon. Please look for future announcements.
