How to Teach Heat Transfer More Systematically by Involving Entropy

In order to teach heat transfer systematically and with a clear physical background, it is recommended that entropy should not be ignored as a fundamental quantity. Heat transfer processes are characterized by introducing the so-called “entropic potential” of the transferred ener...
