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

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 $$x = L/2$$
$$T =$$
$$°C$$
