Question:

Determine the percentage increase in heat transfer associated with attaching aluminum fins of rectangular profile to a plane wall. The fins are \(45 \mathrm{~mm}\) long, \(0.5 \mathrm{~mm}\) thick, and are equally spaced at a distance of \(2 \mathrm{~mm}\) (500 fins \(/ \mathrm{m})\). The convection coefficient associated with the bare wall is \(45 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \cdot \mathrm{K}\), while that resulting from attachment of the fins is \(30 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \cdot \mathrm{K}\).
