Lecture Unit: Introduction to Heat Transfer with Ansys Discovery
This lecture covers basic concepts of heat transfer and thermal analysis, particularly focusing on conduction and convection problems. A comparison of analytical and numerical solutions (in Ansys Discovery) for simple heat transfer problems has been carried out. It also discusses more complex and realistic scenarios of conjugate heat transfer simulations.
