Analysis of Heat Transfer in a Heat Exchanger with Triangular Fins Using Finite Element Modeling
Abstract: The influence of radiation and convection on a catalytic reactor's triangular heat exchanger fins are examined. Heat escapes from the surface by radiation and convection having being transported by conduction throughout the fin. Convection and radiation enable the fin's tip to lose heat, whereas the base of the fin is kept at a constant high temperature. One of the walls is taken for consideration because of its symmetry and ease …
