  52. Conduction-Convection Systems Types of Fin Boundaries * For higher values of mL (i.e., m=4), tanh mL = 0.999 ≈ 1. Thus Qshort fin  Qlong fin for higher values of mL
  53. Conduction-Convection Systems Performance Parameters Fin Efficiency In practical applications, a finned heat transfer surface is composed of the finnedsurfaces and the unfinned portion. In such cases total heat transfer is used. Qtotal= Qfin + Qunfinned = ηafh θ0 + ( a – af) h θ0 Where, a = total heat transfer area (i.e., fin surface + unfinned surface) af= heat transfer area of fins only Qtotal = [ηβ+(1-β)] a h θ0 ≡ η‘ a h θ0 Where, η‘ = βη +1 – β = area – weighted fin efficiency β = af / a

  55. Conduction-Convection Systems Performance Parameters Fin Effectiveness Although the addition of fins on a surface increases surface area, it also increases thermal resistance over the portion of the surface where fins are attached. Therefore there may be situations in which the addition of fins does not improve heat transfer. Pk / (Ah) > 1 (to justify usage of fins)
  56. Conduction-Convection Systems Solved Example A steel rod is exposed to ambient air. If one end of the rod is maintained at a temperature of 120°C, calculate the heat loss from the rod The condition for other end of the rod is not specified explicitly. By considering L/D ratio, it appears that a long fin assumption is applicable. Using the simplest analysis to solve, computing mL: Therefore, expression for Qlong fin can be used.

  60. Transient Conduction If the surface temperature of a solid body is suddenly altered, the temperature within the body begins to change over time. Variation of temperature both with position and time makes determination of temperature distribution under transient condition more complicated. In some situations, variation of temperature with position is negligible under transient state, hence the temperature is considered to vary only with time. The analysis under the above assumption is called lumped system analysis. Biot Number, Bi = (hx) / k Lumped System Analysis is applicable only when Bi < 0.1
  61. Systems with Negligible Internal Resistance Lumped Heat Analysis The convective heat loss from the body (shown aside) has its magnitude equal to decrease in internal energy of solid. On Integration, Solving and rearranging, Q Volume V Area A S T∞ T0 T T=T0 at t=0 1/hA Cth=ρcV T∞
  62. Systems with Negligible Internal Resistance Biot Number It is a non-dimensional parameter used to test the validity of the lumped heat capacity approach. The characteristic length (Lc) for some common shapes is given below: Plane Wall (thickness 2L)Long cylinder (radius R) Sphere (radius R) Cube (side L) The lumped heat capacity approach for simple shapes such as plates, cylinders, spheres and cubes can be used if Bi < 0.1
  63. Systems with Negligible Internal Resistance Response time of a Temperature measuring Instrument For a rapid response of temperature measuring device, the index, (hAt/ρcV) should be large to make the exponential term reach zero faster. This can be achieved by decreasing wire diameter, density and specific heat or by increasing value of ‘h’. The quantity (ρcV/hA) has the units of time and is called ‘time constant’ of system. Hence at time t=t* (one time constant), At the end of time period t* the temperature difference between the body and ambient would be 0.368 of the initial temperature difference. In other words, the temperature difference would be reduced by 63.2 percent. This reduction in 63.2 percent of initial temperature difference is called ‘sensitivity’ Lower the value of time constant, better the response of instrument.
  64. Systems with Negligible Surface Resistance When convective heat transfer coefficient at the surface is assumed to be infinite, the surface temperature remains constant at all the time (t>0) and its value is equal to that of ambient temperature. The systems exhibiting above said conditions are considered to have ‘negligible surface resistance’ An important application of this process is in heat treatment of metals by quenching, viz., the dropping of a metallic sphere initially at 300 °C into a 20 °C oil bath. Mathematical formulation of this case is : T0(x) for t = 0 Ts = T∞ (t>0) Ts Large Flat Plate with Negligible Surface Resistance x L Boundary Conditions

Heat flow in an Infinitely Thick Plate Semi-infinite body A semi-infinite body is one in which at any instant of time there is always a point where the effect of heating / cooling at one of its boundaries is not felt at all. At this point the temperature remains unchanged. Mathematical formulation is : with initial and boundary conditions, Ts at t=0 Qo To x Semi-Infinite Plate
