Assessment of calculation methods for efficiency of straight fins of rectangular profile.

Author(s) : HUANG L. J., SHAH R. K.

Type of article: Article

Summary

Fin efficiency evaluation of plate-fin surfaces in compact heat exchangers is done based on the idealizations of one-dimensional analysis, uniform thickness thin fins, uniform fin thermal conductivity, uniform heat transfer coefficients, uniform temperature ambient, and no temperature depression at the fin base. A critical assessment of these idealizations is presented.
