Analysis of Circumferential Fins by Varying FIN Geometry and Material

Abstract

The current work determines the rate of heat flow from a heating element. Extended surfaces are provided on the element in order to enhance better convection. In this design the fin with different profiles such as rectangle and trapezoidal are analyzed. The study is conducted by considering various materials to obtain optimum material selection to enhance the better flow of heat from the system. The main aim of this work is to study various researches done in past to improve heat transfer rate of cooling fins by changing fin profile and material Used.
