Abstract
Most of the engineering problems require high performance heat transfer Systems with progressively less weights, volumes, accommodating shapes and costs. Fins are one of the heat exchanging devices that are employed extensively to increase heat transfer rates. The rate of heat transfer depends on the surface area and shape of the fin. In this paper authors discussed various types of heat exchangers such as concentric tube heat exchangers, Cross-flow heat exchangers, Shell-and-tube heat exchanger, compact heat exchanger and types of fins such as straight fin, annular fin and pin fin. We discussed performance of fins and its applications. Also state the effect of fin alignment and tube alignment on the heat transfer performance. In this paper analyzed the heat transfer rate and efficiency for circular and elliptical annular fins.
Keywords- Fin, Circular fin, Elliptical fin, Heat exchanger, Heat transfer rate.
