MEEN 743 Micro-Nano Energy Transport

This course covers energy transport at micro/nanoscale where it focuses on energy states, energy transport and thermal energy storage at the micro and nanoscale by means of statistical mechanics and solid state physics. Energy transport will be introduced by means of kinetic theory and Boltzmann Transport Equation. The course will focus on energy transport and energy storage in gases and solids by diffusion and radiation in addition to some applications to heat transfer in micro/nanofluidics.
