Parametric Study of Longitudinal Fins

Abstract

Nowadays the fossil Fuel’s consumption increases day by day, which will create major problem in upcoming years. Since all the vehicles run by fossil fuel only, so to reduce the consumption of fossil fuel, Fins (Extended Surface) plays a vital role. If the temperature of combustion chamber decrease, it will result in increasing the consumption of fuel or if the temperature inside the combustion chamber increases it will melt all the parts, so to transfer the sufficient amount of heat from the combustion chamber to the atmosphere at high rate, we will use the fins. The fins are generally extended surfaces or projections of materials on the system whose function is to transfer heat from the base to the atmosphere. In this we have done the analysis of fins using Finite Difference Method (FDM) and plot the graph. We are using Ansys for designing the fin, Ansys Fluent for Simulation and Microsoft for plotting the graph.
