Summary

PREVIOUS WORK HAS DEVELOPED SOLUTIONS FOR SPECIFIC CONDITIONS OF FIN LENGTH, THICKNESS AND CONDUCTIVITY. THE AUTHOR HAS EXTENDED THIS TO A LONG FIN OF VARIABLE THICKNESS OR CONDUCTIVITY. THE SOLUTION HAS BEEN CHECKED WITH PREVIOUS WORK AND FOUND TO BE INCLOSE AGREEMENT FOR A SPECIFIC CASE. THOUGH THE ANALYSIS ASSUMES NATURAL CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER FROM A FIN OF INFINITE LENGTH, IT MAY BE USED FOR FINS OF FINITE LENGTH PROVIDING THE FIN TIP TEMPERATURE IS NEARLY EQUAL TO THAT OF THE AMBIENT FLUID AND HEAT TRANSFER AT THE TIP IS NEGLIGIBLE COMPARED TO THAT FROM THE TOTAL FIN. D.W.H.
