Evaluation Of Thermal Properties On Pin-Fin Material With MATLAB

Abstract

In the present scenario, Thermal Engineers having a major problem with heat dissipation.
In major applications are like refrigeration & air conditioning, lubricating fuels, cooling of
internal combustion engines, as well as in electrical, electronic parts, and solar energy
applications heat dissipation has been a major problem. This can be minimized only by
increasing the surface of the material or with the help of fins. The main aim of the present work
is to improve the heat transfer behaviour of the fin and evaluation of the performance of fin
efficiency and effectiveness by using the fin of different materials. The performance of pin fin
with six different materials (Cu, Brass, Al 3003, Al 1050, Al 6061, Al 6082) is considered for
better performance. If Excellency is required, the Cu heat sunk may be used for higher
application purpose but Al is used due to their low cost and low weight. In this paper, we mainly
focussed on which material shows better performance than the other materials consideration with
design parameters on thermal efficiency and effectiveness, which is evaluated by using MAT
LAB software.
