Interactive Heat Transfer 4.0

Interactive Heat Transfer is a learning and simulation tool designed to make heat transfer concepts intuitive, visual, and hands-on. It combines physics-based models with an interactive interface so you can set up scenarios in seconds, adjust parameters on the fly, and immediately see how conduction, convection, and radiation respond.

Key features:

• Core modules: steady and transient conduction (1D/2D), natural and forced convection, thermal radiation (surfaces and enclosures), and basic heat exchanger analysis (LMTD and ε–NTU).
• Interactive controls: sliders and inputs for geometry, materials, boundary conditions, flow rates, and heat sources with instant visual feedback.
• Visualization: temperature contours, heat flux vectors, streamlines, and real-time plots of transient responses.
• Dimensionless analysis: automatic calculation of Biot, Fourier, Reynolds, Prandtl, and Nusselt numbers to connect theory with practice.
• Materials library: representative thermal properties (conductivity, heat capacity, density, emissivity) with editable values.
• Experiment builder: run parametric sweeps, compare scenarios side-by-side, and export data and images for reports.
• Units and accessibility: SI and US Customary units, unit-aware inputs, color-blind–friendly palettes, and adjustable text sizes.

Who it’s for:

• Students and instructors seeking clear visualizations and guided exploration for lectures, labs, and assignments.
• Engineers and technicians who need a quick, reliable way to build intuition, screen designs, and communicate thermal behavior.

Benefits:

• Shortens the path from “what if?” to insight with immediate, trustworthy feedback.
• Bridges theory and application through interactive models and dimensionless groups.
• Supports teaching, learning, and early-stage design with exportable results and visuals.

Whether you’re demonstrating fundamental concepts or evaluating design trade-offs, Interactive Heat Transfer helps you learn faster, teach more effectively, and make better thermal decisions.
