Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

In this fifth module of “Basics of Transport Phenomena”, we deal with Newton’s law of cooling. You will learn how to understand the concept of a heat transfer coefficient and the difference between conduction, convection, radiation and illustrate this analogy in a meaningful way. You will also be able to calculate the value of a heat transfer coefficient using Nusselt correlations and calculate the value of the mass transfer coefficient using a Sherwood number.

You can find the formulas for this week in the formula sheet .
