| Description: | These highly interactive Visual Basic modules apply modern research-based computational and visualization methods to the study of 2-D, steady-state and 1-D transient conduction. Background material nearly equivalent to that found in the chapters on these two topics in the standard textbooks is provided as embedded PowerPoint presentations. Students implement their own solutions using the 2-D, steady-state module; the software solves the resulting equations and allows them to visualize and study the solution. The transient conduction module is intended to replace the 58-year-old printed Heisler charts with a complete animation of the heating and cooling process |
