4. INTRODUCTION:-
Natural convection heat transfer in closed enclosure exists in a wide range of engineering applications
Internal natural convection heat transfer in enclosures exists in a wide range of engineering applications
Including cooling of electronic equipment, solar energy applications, thermal insulation of building components,
refrigeration and air conditioning system and others energy and heat transfer applications
In some of these applications, the aim of the design is to increase the rate of heat transfer by natural convections
Huge numbers of researches were conducted to investigate the flow pattern and the heat transfer characteristics by
natural convections
convections in different geometrical enclosures including square, triangle, rectangles, trapezoidal and other non-
geometrical uniform enclosures
5. LITERATURE REVIEW: -
The past research is mostly based on the determination of heat transfer of different fin sizes. Nevertheless, there has
also been some effort in investigating different fin shapes and concepts as below,
-[1] D. Suresh et. al. investigated in their paper stated that the maximum and minimum efficiencies obtained for square
fins were 25.47% and 17.18% respectively. The maximum and minimum efficiencies obtained for circular fins were
24.75% and 15.57% respectively. The maximum and minimum efficiencies obtained for triangular fins were 20.9%
and 13.29% respectively. Irrespective of the type of fins the efficiency decreased with decrease in number of fins due
to the reduction in heat transfer area (except during the presence of 2 fins).
[2] Ranjan Singh et. al. obtained following results during his analysis. 1. Temperature of rectangular fin increases
along the length from the tip to the base of the fin. 2. Temperature of triangular fin increases along the length from the
tip to the base of the fin. 3. In case of shooting method, maximum heat transfer rate is increased along the length from
the tip to the base. The overall conclusion from the analysis of the fin of uniform cross section is that the temperature
profile decreases with increase of length of the fin.
6. [3] Gayatree Behura et. al. has concluded that Heat transfer in a triangular and parabolic fin is derived. Heat
transfer rate is calculated by using Bessel’s function which will help to get heat transfer in complicated geometry like
triangular fin. Heat transfer rate of parabolic fin is calculated by using simple differential equation. It is noted that as
length of fin increased, temperature increases. The efficiency of fin increases with increase in length of fins. It is
observed that triangular fin exhibits more efficiency than parabolic fin. They observed a variation between rates of
heat flow to the length of fin. It is observed that heat flow of parabolic fin is more when compared to a triangular fin
at any point of length. The efficiency of fin increases with increase in length of fins. It is observed that triangular fin
exhibits more efficiency than parabolic fin.
[4] Ganesha B B et al observed that, Nusselt number increases with increase in velocity or Reynolds number. For
base pitch of 8 mm and 6 mm perforations, solid fins gives better heat transfer co-efficient compared to other
geometry of perforated fins. Also, circular perforated fins give high heat transfer co-efficient at 120 volts and
triangular fins give very low Nusselt number at all voltages and velocities, it also shows the variation of Reynolds
number v/s Nusselt number for solid and perforated fins for different voltages and geometry of perforations
7. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY-
This project will undergo through following six phases,
Phase I: Literature Survey
A detailed literature survey will be carried out in the related area. Majorly the selected project is come under
Industrial field influence, so in this phase we will search many research papers and journals. Also visiting the
industries which utilizes such kind of fins will explore many things which are useful for completion of this project.
Phase II: Concept Generation
After finding out concluding remarks from various sources such as research papers and industries we will set our
objectives i.e. what we can do. We will Study of principles of heat transfer and various performance parameters. We
will select the material and dimensions for fin and doing calculation of performance parameters. Also Selection of
thermocouples will be done.
Phase III: Preparation of Drawings
In this phase we are going to prepare the design. We will manufacture some components and some will be brought
out accordingly with design. The suitable drawings will be prepared which will help visualize the actual project.
8. Phase IV: Analysis of the Components
-In this phase we will perform thermal analysis fins. And by doing analysis we can decide the final layout of the
project and if there are changes in dimensions or material will be carried out.
Phase V: Fabrication and assembly of project

-Validation of obtained data with available literature.
-Results will be concluded with suggestion for the future scope.
12. DESIGN PROCEDURE OF FIN:-
The measures ηf and εf probably attract the interest of designers not because their absolute values guide the designs,
but because they are useful in characterizing fins with more complex shapes. In such cases the solutions are often so
complex that of and of plots serve as labor saving graphical solutions. The design of a fin thus becomes an open-
ended matter of optimizing, subject to many factors. Some of the factors that have to be considered include:
The weight of material added by the fin. This might be a cost factor or it might be an important consideration in
this own right.
The possible dependence of h on (T – T ), flow velocity past the fin, or other influences
The influence of the fin (or fins) on the heat transfer coefficient, h, as the fluid moves around it (or them)
The geometric configuration of the channel that the fin lies in
The cost and complexity of manufacturing fins
The pressure drop introduced by the fins

15. 1.ON/OFF SWITCH:-
A switch is an electrical component that can disconnect or connect the conducting path in an electrical circuit,
interrupting the electric current or diverting it from one conductor to another.
2.DIMMER STAT:-
A Dimmer stat is used for various applications in the electrical industry. They are most commonly useful in
regulating AC voltage as an alternative to a potentiometer/autotransformer. They are very effective mechanisms for
controlling many parameters depending on AC voltage.
3.VOLTMETER:-
A voltmeter, also known as a voltage meter, is an instrument used for measuring the potential difference, or
voltage, between two points in an electrical or electronic circuit. Some voltmeters are intended for use in direct
current (DC) circuits; others are designed for alternating current (AC) circuits.
COMPONENTS USED IN PROJECTS:-
16. 4. AMMETER:-
Ammeter, instrument for measuring either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) electric current, in amperes. An
ammeter can measure a wide range of current values because at high values only a small portion of the
current is directed through the meter mechanism; a shunt in parallel with the meter carries the major portion.
5. DIFFERENTS TYPES OF FINS:-
There are three types of fins we used in our project
Circular fin
Triangular fin
Square fin
6.TEMPETURE METER:-
A temperature meter is an instrument used to measure the temperature of beings or things. The most widely
recognized temperature meter is a mercury thermometer used to measure the temperature of people
17. APPLICATION:-
Fins are most commonly used in heat exchanging devices such as radiators in cars, computer CPU heat sinks,
Mostly used in heat exchangers in power plants.
They are also used in newer technology such as hydrogen fuel cells.
Nature has also taken advantage of the phenomena of fins.
The ears of jackrabbits and fennec foxes act as fins to release heat from the blood that flows through them.
