...Mustafa Turkyilmazoglu The regular perturbation method and a numerical solution method to compute a closed-form solution for a straight convective fin with temperature dependent thermal conductivity were used in Ref. [ 6 ]. Differential transform method to heat conduction in tapered fins...

... 04 2013 The performance of tree-like fins with varying bifurcation angle, surface emissivity, material, width-to-thickness ratio, and base heat rate was examined. Overall system performance was examined computationally. The computational results have been validated, verified, and cast...

... is adopted and applied to a number of industrial applications ranging from flat plates of electroluminecence displays to the optimization of heat transfer in fins, fin arrays and mobile phones. Schematic of fin package The easiest case is when the heat conductivity of the base plate and fins...

... geometry of a complex assembly of fins, i.e., an assembly where there is a cavity between the two branches of the T-Y-assembly of fins and two additional extended surfaces. The global thermal resistance of the assembly is minimized four times by geometric optimization subject to the following constraints...

... removing fin modules, comparing their performances when operating with different types of fluids. In particular, the simulations involve air and water (as representative of gases and liquids), to understand the actual benefits of employing a less heat conductive fluid involving smaller pressure losses...

...A.-R. A. Khaled This work considers heat transfer in fin-thin film systems. Two types of these systems are analyzed: (A) a thin film sandwiched between two identical fin halves, and (B) a fin sandwiched between two identical thin films. The corresponding coupled energy equations are solved...

... optimization of finned modules, differently shaped and combined, cooled by air in laminar flow and forced convection condition: Losses of pressure, together with heat removed, contribute to the final assessment made through a novel idea of performance based on the so called overall performance coefficient...

...A.-R. A. Khaled Heat transfer through solar fins and rooted fins is analyzed theoretically in this work. The terminology of “solar fin” is used to refer to fins that are subject to external irradiations while the terminology “rooted fin” is used to refer to fins partially embedded in the base wall...

... fins, to the heated surface. In the current work, spray cooling of high-aspect-ratio open microchannels was explored, which substantially increases the total surface area and allows more residence time for the incoming liquid to be heated by the wall. Five such heat sinks were constructed...
