(2) Steady-state where T1 and T2 are a constant in time.
Gradient is therefore: and heat flux is:

Units of heat flux are W/m2 Units of heat conduction W/mK
For a rod of area A, the heat conducted is q”A, units Watts = Joules/second

BOUNDARY LAYER – region over which temperature and the velocity change.
Convection Heat Transfer occurs through both random molecular motion & bulk
fluid motion within the boundary layer.
qCONV = hA(TS – Tinfinity)
where h is the HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT

- Pror
The amount of thermal and mechanical energy that enters a control volume,
plus the amount of thermal energy that is generated within a control volume,
minus the amount of thermal and mechanical energy that leaves the control
