I never said it was outside, in fact Thermodynamics covers all topics that can produce heat or transfer heat.

Glad you finally woke up. When I told you this early on, you claimed I was an idiot for thinking this. I see you are still trying to wiggle about it with your Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer. That is like a book on electricity called Electromagnetism and Circuit Analysis. Circuit Analysis has a large collection of specific techniques used to effectively compute results, but it is entirely consistent with the governing laws of Electromagnetism.

So at least I will no longer taunt you with your stupidity about Thermodynamics. Glad we could get past that. It does not bode well for your understanding any of the finer and more contentious issues in GW however. You'll just stay an idiot if given any cover at all.

What I said was that it is a different subject, I showed you a course offerings that prove it, you laughed because it was only conductive heat transfer. So I guess it can be divided into separate subjects as well.

I laughed because you don't understand what hierarchy is. There are a number of different methods of Accounting (Cash accounting, Fund Accounting, etc). We say these are all part of accounting. You can take entire college classes on specific methods of accounting. But you don't claim they are a "separate subject" from accounting. They are still part of the field of Accounting.

In the same manner all of Heat Transfer is part of Thermodynamics. Thermodynamics is the science of all heat related processes. There are all sorts of subsets in Thermodynamics (gas, solids, engines, jet engines, rocket engines, etc) and every one has much detailed knowledge and methods worked out and you can most likely get Phds in any one of them. But they are all under thermodynamics and all are derived from the Laws of Thermodynamics.
