Question:

A 6-in-wide and 8-in-high vertical hot surface in 78°F air is to be cooled by a heat sink with equally spaced fins of rectangular profile. The fins are 0.08 in thick and 8 in long in the vertical direction and have a height of 1.2 in from the base. Determine the optimum fin spacing and the rate of heat transfer by natural convection from the heat sink if the base temperature is 180°F.
