Heat Transfer Fundamentals

This lecture introduces the fundamentals of heat transfer, covering topics such as conduction, convection, and radiation. It explains how heat is transferred between bodies and the principles of thermodynamics, including the conservation of energy. The lecture also discusses the concept of enthalpy, latent heat, and the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Various examples and illustrations are used to demonstrate the different modes of heat transfer and the importance of understanding thermal dynamics.
