Heat Transfer Lecture Notes 2 (2016)

This document provides equations and explanations for calculating heat transfer through cylindrical coordinates. It discusses conduction through a cylinder, a composite cylinder made of different materials, and heat transfer from one fluid to another separated by a curved cylindrical wall. It also defines thermal resistance and overall heat transfer coefficients. Sample problems are provided to demonstrate applying the equations.
