Design and Thermal Analysis of Fins for Air Cooled Engine by Varying its GeometryBy Umesh Vora, Ankit V. Vaishnav
Abstract: An air-cooled motorcycle engine releases heat to the atmosphere through the mode of convection to facilitate this, fins are provided on the outer surface of the cylinder. The cooling fins allow the wind to move the heat away from the engine. The heat transfer rate depends upon the velocity of the vehicle, fin geometry and the ambient temperature. Low rate of heat transfer through fins is the main problem of …

Design and Analysis of of Fins for Air Cooled Engine by Varying its Geometry & Material - A ReviewBy Umesh Vora
Abstract: Fins are mechanical structures which are used to cool various structures via the process of convection to facilitate this, fins are provided on the outer surface of the cylinder. The cooling fins allow the wind to move the heat away from the engine. For fins, material like aluminium alloy is widely used. In most of cases simple fins geometry is preferred such as rectangular fins. . The heat transfer rate …
