Thermal Analysis of Fins with Modified Tips
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
Fins, the topic of this analysis, is an extended surface which is used as a source of increasing the rate of heat transfer for beneficial aspects. This is a steady state analysis. The edge of the fins is configured with various types like rounded tip, wedge shape and flat end. Mostly fins are used to transfer heat from the object to the atmosphere. Hence convective heat transfer analysis is carried out on the three different fins with different ends. The fins are designed as in an automobile radiator and hence two materials; copper and aluminum are used for all the three design configurations. From the results, the better configuration will be evident.
