Transfer Processes
1.1 INTRODUCTION
7he profession of engineering is concerned largely with fashioning our material world through
physical, chemical and biological changes. 0ost of these changes reTuire or result in transfer of
energy, momentum or chemical species from one substance, phase or location to another. 7he

of heat transfer. A %essemer converter for making steel from pig iron must be designed so that

the blood at the reTuired rate. 6imilarly, a knowledge of transfer processes is reTuired in the
design of smoke-stacks (to keep the concentration of pollutants at ground level within acceptable
limits), electronic components (to guard against their overheating), heat-shields of re-entrant
space vehicles (to protect them from the intense heat generated when the vehicle enters the
atmosphere at high speed), shapes of cast-iron components (to provide for uniform cooling),
fabrication processes of semi-conductors, etc.
:hile thermodynamics (which is concerned only with the eTuilibrium states) enables us
to predict the quantityRIZRUNDQGKHDWH[FKDQJHVLWGRHVQRWFRQFHUQLWVHOIZLWKWKHrates at
which these can be transferred. A study of transfer processes is an engineering science which
deals mainly with the rates of transfer of such Tuantities. )or this reason, the transfer processes
are also called rate processes. &hemical kinetics which studies the rates of change of chemical

in the concepts used in the diverse transfer processes. :e will in this book be concerned

A healthy human body has a very robust mechanism for maintaining the temperature. 7he
core temperature of a healthy body is maintained very close to 37& in almost all environmental
conditions. 7o maintain this constant core temperature, all the heat produced within the body
is conducted to the skin (the skin necessarily being at a temperature lower than the core
temperature of the body), and then rejected to the environment. 7ypically, the area of the skin in

skin, HsVTsAs, minus the rate at which heat received by the skin from the walls by assuming that
the walls of the room are at the same temperature Ta as the ambient. As will be shown in &hapter

rate of heat production within the body resulting in decrease in core body temperature. A person
can become uncomfortable even when the core body temperature drops by just 0.&. 2ur skin
is a remarkable organ. As the temperature drops, goose bumps develop increasing the thermal
resistance of our skin. )urther, the blood supply near the surface is reduced drastically, causing
the skin temperature to drop, while the core temperature is relatively unchanged. As temperature
drops further, shivering may begin, which can increase the metabolic heat generation to go up
