An experimental investigation of heat dissipation from vertically stacked fin arrays subjected to varying air velocities was carried out. The fin arrays essentially form the heated wall of a narrow duct under forced air flow. Although heat dissipation is primarily by convection to the airstream, rad

The heat transfer characteristics of staggered, frontally shrouded fin arrays have been studied experimentally, in the case of forced convection of air. Nusselt number and Colburn number are given, for the range of Reynolds numbers from 2000 to 12000. The local Husselt number distributions signal th
## Abstract A quasiβ3D numerical model is developed to study the problem of laminar natural convection and radiation heat transfer from a vertical fin array. An enclosure is formed by two adjacent vertical fins and vertical base in the fin array. Results obtained from this enclosure are used to pre
