The Basics of Heat Treatment: Processes, Terminology, Equipment, and Science What you'll learn: Overview of heat treating processes, terminology, equipment, and conceptsHigh-level chemical and metallurgical conceptsOverview of mechanical propertiesEffects of carbon on mechanical propertiesHow mechanical properties and enhanced through heat treatingFundamentals of heat transferBasics of quench and tempering, annealing, normalizing, and case hardeningBasics of furnace designs, types, and quench mediasIntroduction to the Iron-Carbon Phase Diagram Nearly every product made from metal -- from simple fasteners to complex structural elements to airplane parts -- has undergone some sort of heat treatment process. After all, the mechanical properties needed from a component like strength, hardness, ductility, or corrosion resistance, can rarely be achieved through material selection alone. Choosing the right material selection is only the first step. Engineering and metallurgists then need to apply the appropriate heat treatment processes to that material to achieve their desired results.So if you are just getting involved with heat treatment processes, the design or manufacturing of steel components, or the purchasing of heat treated components, then this is the class for you!!In this course, Fundamentals of Steel Heat Treating, licensed professional engineer and metallurgy instructor, Garry Pace, will share with you the basic concepts of heat treatment. And this course starts at the BASICS ... no obscure terminology or chemistry to wade through.You will learn:The basics of steel metallurgyFundamentals of heat transferThe major types of heat treatment like annealing, quenching, tempering, normalizing and case hardeningHow carbon affects the ability of a steel to be heat treatedHow time and temperature interact to heat treat a partAn overview of mechanical propertiesHow heat treatment can help achieve those propertiesThe major furnace typesThe major quench media typesAnd tons of practical insightAnd in addition to the wealth of knowledge this course offers, you also get:Lifetime access to all course materialsA Certificate of Completion showing your name, the course title, and length of courseQ&A access with the instructors through the Udemy platformSo if you're looking for a high-quality, low-cost way to understand the basics of heat treatment, then this is the class for you.

With applications ranging from household heating and air-conditioning systems to chemical processing and power production in large-scale plants, a comprehensive understanding of heat exchangers is essential.In this course, we cover crucial aspects of heat exchangers, starting with their classification into Parallel Flow, Counter Flow, Cross Flow, and Shell and Tube types. You will explore the overall heat transfer coefficient (U), which accounts for the contribution of convection in each fluid and conduction through the separating wall.We examine how the rate of heat transfer between fluids depends on the varying temperature differences across the heat exchanger. You'll learn to determine the overall heat transfer coefficient and the log mean temperature difference (LMTD) for different configurations. The course also introduces the correction factor (F), which accounts for deviations in mean temperature difference from LMTD in complex configurations.Furthermore, we'll discuss the effectiveness-NTU method, a powerful analytical tool for evaluating heat exchangers when outlet temperatures of fluids are unknown.By the end of this course, you'll have a solid understanding of heat exchanger types, their practical applications, and performance analysis, enabling you to excel in real-world situations.Enroll now and embark on your journey to mastering heat exchangers. Enjoy and happy learning!
