Question:

A plane wall with surface temperature of 350°C is attached with straight rectangular fins (k = 235 W/m·K). The fins are exposed to an ambient air condition of 25°C and the convection heat transfer coefficient is 154 W/m2·K. Each fin has a length of 50 mm, a base of 5 mm thick and a width of 100 mm. Determine the efficiency, heat transfer rate, and effectiveness of each fin, using

(a) Table 17€“3

TABLE 17-3 Efficiency and surface areas of common fin configurations Straight rectangular fins tanh ml.. ml. m = V2h/kt

(b) Fig. 17€“43.

Alr, 25°C h = 154 W/m2K T,= 350°C t= 5 mm k= 235 W/m-K w- 100 mm = 50 mím-
