Heat-and-Transfer

Overview

This repository provides a tutorial on the fundamental concepts of heat and work transfer in thermodynamics. It includes a detailed Jupyter Notebook that covers theoretical explanations, formulas, and examples on how to compute heat and work transfer under different scenarios.

Contents

  1. Heat and work Tutorial.ipynb – The Jupyter Notebook containing the main tutorial.
  2. README.md – Information about the repository and usage instructions.

Navigation

The following are the key sections of the Jupyter Notebook:

  • Introduction: A brief overview of thermodynamic principles and the role of heat and work in energy transfer.
  • Heat Transfer: Explanation of different heat transfer methods (conduction, convection, and radiation).
  • Work Transfer: Methods to calculate work transfer in various systems.
  • Example Problems: Step-by-step examples that demonstrate calculations of heat and work transfer.
  • Visualizations: Graphs and plots that provide better insights into the process.

Usage

Prerequisites

Before running the notebook, ensure that you have the following installed on your system:

  • Python
  • Jupyter Notebook
  • Required Python libraries: numpy, matplotlib, and pandas (install these via pip if needed).
