FIN HEAT TRANSFER
Solution of Radiation and Convection Fin Heat Transfer Problems
This program was developed to provide for the rapid, steady-state solution of fin-type heat transfer problems. The program accommodates a variety of fin-type heat conduction applications involving radiative and convective boundary conditions with additionally imposed local heat flux. It also accommodates lengthwise variation of fin boundary conditions, conductances, and dimensions. The program is particularly suited for use in parametric studies during fin design. It can also be used for a variety of one-dimensional and two-dimensional heat transfer problems that do not correspond specifically to fin-type applications. A powerful and efficient analytic tool, this program can achieve an order-of-magnitude reduction in run time when employed as a substitute for a general purpose heat transfer program.
