Summary

TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTIONS IN A STRAIGHT FIN OF RECTANGULAR PROFILE (OR IN A CYLINDRICAL FIN) WITH UNIFORM AND NON-UNIFORM INTERNAL HEAT-GENERATION CHARACTERISTICS AND NON-UNIFORM HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS ARE DERIVED ANALYTICALLY. THE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT IS ASSUMED TO BE A POWER FUNCTION OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FIN AND THAT OF THE FLUID SURROUNDING IT. THE POWER OF THIS FUNCTION IS TAKEN AS BEING EQUAL TO -1, 0, 1 AND 2. NON-UNIFORM INTERNAL HEAT GENERATION IS ASSUMED TO DEPEND ON THE FIN TEMPERATURE AND THIS DEPENDENCY IS EXPRESSED IN A POLYNOMIAL EQUATION UP TO THE THIRD DEGREE.
