Question: Aluminum fins with parabolic profiles. shown in the accompanying figure, are used to remove heat from a surface whose temperature is 120°C.The temperature of the surrounding air is 20°C.The natural heat transfer coefficient associated with the surrounding air is 25 W/m • K. The thermal conductivity of aluminum is It = 168 W/m • K. Using ANSYS, determine the temperature distribution along a fin. Approximate the heat loss for one such fin.
