Abstract

Rate of heat transfer is having practical interest in almost all the engineering applications such as heat exchangers, boilers, electronic chips etc. the heat transfer problems encounters in practice is of two kinds, such as rating and sizing problem. The rating problem deals with the rate of heat-transfer through the systems while the sizing problems deals with the determination of the size of the system in order to transfer heat at a specific rate for a specified temperature differences. The scope of this project falls under rating problem where the analysis is done for the optimal geometry for the enhanced heat transfer rate if the rectangular heat sink is extensively used in this study for the initial problem statement and validation. Similar study is also done for the different geometries. This report consists of the details of the progress done in this project.
