Chapter 2
Principles of steady-state heat
transfer in conduction
TOPIC OUTCOMES
It is expected that students will be able to:
• Solve problems using steady-state conduction
principles for one-dimensional solid conduction
heat transfer in parallel and series
• Calculate overall heat transfer coefficient to solve
problems related to combined conduction and
convection heat transfer mechanism.
• Solve the problem related to internal heat
generation and determine the critical thickness
and of insulation for a cylinder
• Apply shape factor to estimate the
multidimensional heat transfer

– Conduction Through a Plane Wall
– Conduction Through Solids In Series
– Conduction Through Solids In Parallel
– Conduction Through a Hollow Cylinder
– Conduction Through a Multilayer Cylinders
– Conduction Through a Hollow Sphere
• Combined Conduction and Convection
CONDUCTION: FOURIER’S LAW
• Flux of conduction heat transfer can be calculated by Fourier’s Law
Fourier’s Law
qx : heat-transfer rate in the x direction (SI: W or J/s; cgs: cal/s; Eng.: btu/h)
A : cross sectional are normal to the heat flow (m2)
k : thermal conductivity ( SI: W/m. K; cgs: cal/s. cm. °C; Eng.: btu/h. °F. ft )
dT/dx : temperature different in the x direction
• The minus sign is required in Fourier’s equation because the heat transfer is positive in the direction from initial point 1 to the final point 2. Since the T1 > T2 (heat is transport from
high temperature to lower temperature region), minus sign is needed to make the value of heat rate positive.

• For steady state, the equation can be integrated,
This equation is basically a matter of putting in values to
solve.

With insulation:EXAMPLE
• An electric wire having a diameter of 1.5 mm covered
with a plastic insulation (thickness = 2.5mm) is exposed
to the air at 300K and ho = 20 W/m2.K. It is assumed
that the wire surface temperature is constant at 400K
and is not affected by the covering.
• A) calculate the value of the critical radius
• B) calculate the heat loss per (m) of wire length with no
insulation
• C) repeat (b) for insulation being present
Convection: Heat transfer using movement of
fluids.
Heat transfer is considered as convection with the
presence of bulk fluid motion. Fluid motion
enhances heat transfer where the higher the fluid
velocity, the higher the rate of heat transfer.
2 main classification of convective heat transfer;
1. Forced Convection :
fluid flow by pressure
differences, a pump, a fan and so on
2. Natural Convection:
motion of fluid results from
the density changes in heat transfer
