What is fin in heat transfer?

9 Answer(s) Available
Answer # 1 #

In the study of heat transfer, fins are surfaces that extend from an object to increase the rate of heat transfer to or from the environment by increasing convection. The amount of conduction, convection, or radiation of an object determines the amount of heat it transfers.

A “fin” is any external feature protruding into the stream of a moving fluid. Normally the fin is used to remove heat from its host where the fin is hotter than the fluid."" ·" : "A fin is a part of a machine or equipment that is having sole purpose to increase the surface"What are the fins types in heat transfer?"""What type of fin is used for more heat transfer?
