Difference between thermodynamics and heat transfer


Difference between thermodynamics and heat transfer

Thermodynamics tells us:
• how much heat is transferred (dQ)
• how much work is done (dW)
• final state of the system
Heat transfer tells us:
• how (with what modes) dQ is transferred
• at what rate dQ is transferred
• temperature distribution inside the body
