Continuing the heat transfer series, in this video we take a look at conduction and the heat equation. Fourier's law is used ...

The image above, provided by NASA, highlights how all three heat-transfer methods (conduction, convection, and radiation) work in the same environment.

The basic heat transfer equation for heat loss based on conduction through the metal pipe and insulation, and convection at the inside fluid film and the outside insulation surface air film is ...

A very important concept for understanding cooling tower heat transfer is that of “wet bulb” temperature. Consider a warm summer day with 90°F shade temperature at 40 percent relative humidity.

One formula we will need to understand for this topic is a heat transfer formula that is used quite often in HVAC: Q=m∙c∙∆T. Considering that HVAC projects in the U.S. usually measure water flow in ...

A very important concept for understanding cooling tower heat transfer is that of “wet bulb” temperature. Consider being outdoors, but in the shade, on a 90 F day at 40 percent relative humidity.
