Question: Current Attempt in Progress A 4 0 - mm long, 2 . 8 - mm diameter pin fin is fabricated of an aluminum alloy (

Current Attempt in Progress
A 40-mm long, 2.8- mm diameter pin fin is fabricated of an aluminum alloy (k=140Wm*K).
(a) Determine the fin heat transfer rate, in W , for Tb=50C,T=25C,h=1000Wm2*K, and an adiabatic tip condition.
(b) Determine the thickness, in mm , of a uniformly applied coating of paint that will maximize the fin heat transfer rate. Determine the painted fin heat transfer rate, in W . The thermal conductivity of the paint is k=2.5Wm*K. Neglect any thermal contact resistance between the aluminum fin and the paint.
Part A
Your answer is correct.
Determine the fin heat transfer rate, in W , for Tb=50C,T=25C,h=1000Wm2*K, and an adiabatic tip condition.
