Summary

THE PROBLEM OF CONJUGATE NATURAL CONVECTION ABOUT A VERTICAL CYLINDRICAL FIN WITH UNIFORM LATERAL MASS FLUX IN A FLUID-SATURATED POROUS MEDIUM HAS BEEN STUDIED NUMERICALLY. SOLUTIONS BASED ON THE THIRD LEVEL OF TRUNCATION ARE OBTAINED BY THE LOCAL NONSIMILARITY METHOD. THE EFFECTS OF THE SURFACE MASS FLUX, THE CONJUGATE CONVECTION-CONDUCTION PARAMETER, AND THE SURFACE CURVATURE ON FIN TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION, LOCAL HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT, LOCAL HEAT FLUX, AVERAGE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT, AND TOTAL HEAT TRANSFER RATE ARE PRESENTED.
