NOTE about HW rules/policy: Every electronic correspondence (email etc.) must have subject line with the course number and semester-year-and-your-initial abbreviation (without spacing) and a relevant heading in it (key words are fine, e.g., 390sp04mk lab safety, for MEE390 Spring 2004 and Milivoje Kostic (initials), related to lab safety, for example). Your email must finish with your full name "signature," since many of you use an alias for your email address. Otherwise your email may be discarded. A free electronic HEAT TRANSFER TEXTBOOK
MEE 352 Approved Handouts:
Please PRINT and bring the Approved Handouts (with your name and bounded in a single volume: all stapled together or in a single 3-ring folder): Chapter Summaries (or copy from your Textbook), Unit Conversions and Constants, and Appendix 1 (or copy from your Textbook): SI Property Tables and Charts, if we need those for our Midterm Exam. TA will print the Approved Handouts and make it available for those students who want to copy them instead of printing. NOTE: If any font in a PDF file does not print properly, choose “Print as Image” option in the File>Print menu. If the font prints properly it is better to print without this option. You may want to choose other options suitable for your printer (like "Shrink oversized pages to paper size," etc.). It is your responsibility to check the printing and add/correct any misprint if needed. * Online Textbook Errata.* Online Textbook 3dr Ed. Errata

In THEORETICAL and EXPERIMENTAL ASPECTS of HEAT and MASS TRANSFER (Editors: J. Krope, S. H. Sohrab, F.-K. Benra), ISBN: 978-960-6766-31-2; ISSN: 1790-2769, p.44-49, WSEAS Press. 2008.
(HW#4c due Mo 02-08-10): Our first Midterm exam is scheduled for Mo 02-08-10. Review all covered reading assignments so far (Chapters 1, 2, and 3), including all examples, homework solutions, and class-worked exercises. Review and/or summarize all covered chapters and fully understand and be familiar with all concepts, formulas and quantities with units in those formulas, as explained in class. Next class is a review class and there will be no new materials covered before the Midterm. HW solutions for all graded HWs are posted, and for the remaining HW it will be posted as soon as it is collected, after which no late HW will be accepted. An additional HW review session may be scheduled with TA if requested by majority of students (talk with your Class Representative and TA to arrange for it if desired).
Review Midterm/Exam Policies (Show all your work for full credit): For Midterm and Final exams staple together in this order from top to bottom: Quiz/Midterm/Final Exam answer form, 4-sheet-blank-paper-set for Midterm or 8 for Final (exact number s must be submitted even if blank), and Multiple Choice answer form (the last page in the stapled set). Bring the latter with your personal Textbook, printed/copied Approved Handouts (with the header in upper-right corner and bounded: stapled or in a single 3-ring folder), pen, pencil and a calculator, etc. Test and exams may be (in part or in whole) closed notes, handouts and textbook, or allowed selected handouts and/or open textbook. I also advise you to review other learning aids on the Publisher’s Textbook Web.
