In the first part of this paper, the irreversibility production is analyzed from the local level, at one point in a convective heat transfer arrangement. The second part of the paper is devoted to a limited review of second law analysis applied to classic engineering components for heat exchange. In this category, the paper includes such topics as: heat transfer augmentation techniques, heat exchanger design, and thermal insulation systems. Analytical methods for evaluating and minimizing the irreversibility associated with textbook-type components of heat transfer equipment are presented.
