Abstract
The research provides a comprehensive understanding of heat transfer for engineering students, covering various topics and emphasizing key theoretical principles. It’s a useful resource for degree programs in mechanical, production, and chemical engineering, as well as interdisciplinary studies. The study explores transient heat conduction, using mathematical foundations, analytical methods to investigate how temperature distribution changes over time. The outcomes highlight the impact of material properties, geometry, and initial conditions on heat conduction behavior, offering valuable insights for applications in engineering, material science, and thermal management.
