Inclined Aluminum Vertical Plate Experimental Investigation of Natural Convection Heat Transfer with V-Shaped Fins Attached

Abstract

Most often, convection is thought of as the heat transfer in both liquids and gases. Convection is a word that always refers to the results of both internal heat conduction of a fluid and heat transmission to the streaming of bulk fluid flow, even if it is occasionally a third type of heat transfer. This study focuses on the convective heat transfer from inclined V-Fin Arrays, which have surfaces that have been blackened before fins have adhered to them to create fin arrays that are both inclined and horizontal. First, this study was completed in the phase of the plane plate, inclined plate and with straight fins and V-fins, to analyze the different states of natural convection heat transfer for aluminium plate. After that, the best result was collected in the inclined plate with V-Fins attached to it. Fins are used in a range of engineering applications to enhance convective heat transfer, and they offer a useful approach to getting large without needing a lot of primary surface area and a large total heat transmission surface area. To control heat, fins are frequently employed in electrical equipment like computer power supplies and substation transformers. Other uses include cooling for internal combustion engines and vehicle fin radiators. Finned surfaces can be used to increase natural convection heat transfer in a viable and useful way.
