Conjugate natural convection in a square enclosure with inclined thin fin of arbitrary length

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the numerical study of steady, laminar, conjugate natural convection in a square enclosure with an inclined thin fin of arbitrary length.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural convection around a radial heat sink

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental and numerical investigation of natural convection in a radial heat sink, composed of a horizontal circular base and rectangular fins, is presented. And a correlation is proposed to predict the average Nusselt number for the heat sink array.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural convection heat transfer from inclined plate-fin heat sinks

TL;DR: In this paper, the steady state convection from heat sinks with parallel arrangement of rectangular cross section vertical plate fins on a vertical base is numerically investigated in order to obtain a validated model that is used for investigating inclined orientations of a heat sink.
Journal ArticleDOI

An experimental investigation on performance of rectangular fins on a horizontal base in free convection heat transfer

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study of free convection heat transfer from rectangular fin-arrays on a horizontal base was conducted, and the authors found that for a given base-to-ambient temperature difference, the convective heat transfer rate from fin arrays takes on a maximum value as a function of fin spacing and fin height.

Orientation effects on natural convection/radiation heat transfer from pin-fin arrays

TL;DR: In this article, the heat transfer characteristics of highly populated pin-fin arrays have been investigated for three different orientations in the gravity field: (1) horizontal fins and vertical baseplate, (2) vertical fins and horizontal downfacing base plate, and (3) vertical fin and horizontal upfacing baseplate.
