Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

The analysis for fin thermal performance under dehumidifying conditions is conducted using a numerical approach. Finite-Element method is used to account for the non-linear effects due to temperature dependent parameters and humidity-temperature relationship. The temperature profiles, as well as the overall fin efficiency, are studied. The fin efficiency is found to be highly dependent on the operating conditions and the degree to which the heat transfer coefficient is a function of temperature. It is found that the effect of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity on fin performance is less as compared to heat transfer coefficient over the considered range of operating conditions.
