  • 1. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, The Univ. of Akron, Akron, OH (USA)

Description

Abandoning the length-of-arc simplification, this paper presents a systematic study on the optimum dimensions for convective straight fin of various profiles. The optimum results are set forth in nondimensional parameters and presented in terms of transcendental equations as well as graphical forms
