Course Content
Concepts of heat transfer at the micro- and nanoscale. Deviation from the macroscopic theory. Energy carries: phonons, photons, electrons. Energy levels. Transfer of energy by waves and particles. Boltzmann transport equation. Size effects on condition, convention and radiation. Applications: Heat transfer in micro- and nanochannels; Radiation phenomena in participating media at the temporal nanoscale (short-pulse laser irradiation).
