transient heat transfer
1Heat transfer — is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the exchange of thermal energy from one physical system to another. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, and phase change …
2Refractories heat-up — After building of a new refractory lined industrial furnace or equipment, or refractory maintenance or relining of existing equipment, a necessary step is the start up of the operation, which usually involves heating up the unit in a controllable …
3Wireless energy transfer — or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous,… …
4Lumped capacitance model — A lumped capacitance model, also called lumped system analysis,[1] reduces a thermal system to a number of discrete “lumps” and assumes that the temperature difference inside each lump is negligible. This approximation is useful to simplify… …
5Biot number — The Biot number (Bi) is a dimensionless number used in unsteady state (or transient) heat transfer calculations. It is named after the French physicist Jean Baptiste Biot (1774 1862), and relates the heat transfer resistance inside and at the… …

7Quickfield — is a finite element analysis software package running on Windows platforms. [ [http://www.infinitysciencepress.com/books/BookDetail.aspx?productID=172770 Applied Electromagnetics Using QuickField™ MATLAB] by James R. Claycomb. ISBN 978 1 934015… …
8Thermal conduction — In heat transfer, conduction (or heat conduction) is a mode of transfer of energy within and between bodies of matter, due to a temperature gradient. Conduction means collisional and diffusive transfer of kinetic energy of particles of ponderable …
9Thermal conductivity — In physics, thermal conductivity, k, is the property of a material that indicates its ability to conduct heat. It appears primarily in Fourier s Law for heat conduction.First, we define heat conduction by the formula::: H=frac{Delta Q}{Delta t}=k …
10Boiling water reactor — A boiling water reactor (BWR) is a type of nuclear reactor developed by the General Electric in the mid 1950s.Fact|date=April 2008 The BWR is characterized by two phase fluid flow (water and steam) in the upper part of the reactor core. See… …
