The document discusses heat transfer via fins. It defines fins as protrusions that increase the surface area in contact with a fluid to facilitate heat transfer. It presents the governing differential equation for one-dimensional heat transfer through a fin and describes the boundary conditions and solutions for different fin types, including infinitely long fins, short fins with insulated tips, and fins with convection at the tip. It also provides equations for calculating the heat transfer rate for different fin configurations.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Yashawantha K M, Dept. of Marine Engineering, SIT, Mangaluru Page 1
FINNED SURFACES
Introduction:
Convection: Heat transfer between a solid surface and a moving fluid is governed by the
Newton’s cooling law: where Ts is the surface temperature and T is the
fluid temperature. Therefore, to increase the convective heat transfer, one can
• Increase the temperature difference between the surface and the fluid.
• Increase the convection coefficient h. This can be accomplished by increasing the fluid
flow over the surface since h is a function of the flow velocity and the higher the velocity,
the higher the h. Example: a cooling fan.
• Increase the contact surface area A. Example: a heat sink with fins.
Many times, when the first option is not in our control and the second option (i.e. increasing h) is
already stretched to its limit, we are left with the only alternative of increasing the effective
surface area by using fins or extended surfaces. Fins are protrusions from the base surface into
the cooling fluid, so that the extra surface of the protrusions is also in contact with the fluid.
Most of you have encountered cooling fins on air-cooled engines (motorcycles, portable
generators, etc.), electronic equipment (CPUs), automobile radiators, air conditioning equipment
(condensers) and elsewhere.

order, linear, ordinary equation)
The solution is,
Where C1 and C2 are constants
C1 and C2 are constant are determined by the application of the two boundary condition, one
specified for the fin tip.

Fin efficiency
The fin efficiency is defined as the ratio of the energy transferred through a real fin to
that transferred through an ideal fin. An ideal fin is thought to be one made of a perfect or
infinite conductor material. A perfect conductor has an infinite thermal conductivity so that the
entire fin is at the base material temperature.
For long fin

Fin Effectiveness
How effective a fin can enhance heat transfer is characterized by the fin effectiveness
which is as the ratio of fin heat transfer and the heat transfer without the fin. For an adiabatic fin:
