Heat Transfer Through A Long Fin

Objective

To experimentally study the heat transfer through a long fin experiment and compare it with analytical solutions

apparatus

h =100 W/m2.K

K = 201 W/m.K

Set Variable

T(°C)
Tbase(°C)
L (mm)
P (mm)
A (mm2)

Temperature Gradient

Move the cursor to the graph to see the points

$$q_f = ±\sqrt{(h.P.k.A)} \times (T_b - T_∞)$$

Temperature distribution
$$\frac{T- T_∞}{T_b- T_∞} = e^{-mx}$$
Heat transfer rate through a long fin

$$q_f = ±\sqrt{(h.P.k.A)} \times (T_{base} - T_∞)$$

$$q_f = $$

$$W$$

Temperature at L/2
Check the graph at $$x = L/2$$

$$T =$$
