Author(s) : BARROW H.

Type of article: Article

Summary

A THEORETICAL SERIES SOLUTION FOR THE ONE-DIMENSIONAL TEMPERAT URE DISTRIBUTION ALONG A STRAIGHT RECTANGULAR PROFILE FIN WITH VARIABLE SURFACE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT IS PRESENTED. THE METHOD OF SOLUTION IS BY DIRECT INTEGRATION OF THE BASIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION AND AVOIDS THE NEED FOR TABLES OF FUNCTIONS. THE RESULT CORRESPONDS WITH THE FAMILIAR CLOSED-FORM SOLUTION WHEN THE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT IS UNIFORM. THE RESULTS OF CALCULATIONS FOR THE MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE VARIATION FOR A RANGE OF TYPICAL DISTRIBUTIONS OF HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT ARE ALSO INCLUDED.
