This chapter delves into transient heat conduction, focusing on scenarios where temperatures within a body change over time. It introduces fundamental concepts and analytical techniques for analyzing non-steady-state heat transfer problems, including the lumped capacitance method, use of Heisler charts, and solutions for infinite/semi-infinite solids, crucial for various engineering applications involving heating or cooling processes.
