Stainless steel 316 pin fins are designed for use in industrial cooling. The fins will be subjected to air flow at 20 m/s at T-350 K. Three fin geometries will be tested: V.T V.T V. T Configuration A Configuration B Configuration C Cross sections of cylindrical and square fins in cross flow All three configurations have the same cross-sectional area (the circular cross section has a diameter D= 12 mm) and all fins have the same length, L = 20 cm. Which fin has the largest heat transfer rate? If each fin is connected to a base with a temperature of 500 K and has an adiabatic tip, plot the temperature of each fin as a function of length from 0 to 15 cm. Note this problem requires you to first solve for the convection coefficient, and then review fin analysis.

Cross sections of cylindrical and square fins in cross flow
All three configurations have the same cross-sectional area (the circular cross section has a diameter
D= 12 mm) and all fins have the same length, L = 20 cm. Which fin has the largest heat transfer rate? If
each fin is connected to a base with a temperature of 500 K and has an adiabatic tip, plot the temperature
of each fin as a function of length from 0 to 15 cm. Note this problem requires you to first solve for the
convection coefficient, and then review fin analysis.
