Transcribed Image Text:1. Determine the heat flow for (i) rectangular fins and (ii) triangular fin of 20 mm length
and 3 mm base thickness. Thermal conductivity
100 W/m2K, base temperature = 120°C surrounding fluid temperature = 35°C. Determine
also the fin effectiveness.
2. A circumferential fin on a pipe of 50 mm OD is 3 mm thick and 20 mm long. Using the
property values and other parameters in 1, determine the:
= 45 W/m K. Convection coefficient h=
(i)
heat flow and effectiveness
(ii)
If the pitch is 10 mm, determine the increase in heat flow for 1 m length of pipe. Also
determine the total efficiency.
