The fin＇s heat dissipation rate is compared to that of an equivalent solid one. The parameters considered are geometrical dimensions and thermal properties of the fin and the perforations. The gain in the heat transfer enhancement and the fin weight reduction due to the perforations are considered. The study shows that the heat dissipation from the perforated fin for a certain range of triangular perforation dimensions and spaces between perforations result in improvement in the heat transfer over the equivalent solid fin. The heat transfer enhancement of the perforated fin increases as the fin thermal conductivity and its thickness are increased.展开更多

Triangular fins are arranged in form of nozzle and heat transfer coefficient is calculated. Angle of taper of nozzle is changed i.e. angles of triangles are varied and then heat transfer coefficient is calculated. Total finned area of all fins is almost the same. Number of fins and orientation of fins are different. In this study to calculate heat transfer coefficient of unfinned area open channel is considered where density and pressure are constant. This study shows that heat transfer is enhanced by 213%, 268% and 339% using 30°, 45° and 60° fins. Computational results show that heat transfer is enhanced by 108%, 130%, 146% using 30°, 45° and 60° fins.展开更多
