Abstract

Heat transfer is a working area where different numerical results are obtained from different materials, different environments, independent observations are made, data can be collected at different bases based on the abundance of data input. effects on heat transfer. The effects of air flow, air temperature and air pressure on heat transfer were discussed. Unlike the previous studies, the construction of the fin is made of aluminum and the choice of the NACA 4040 wing profile as the shape of the fin was one of the major factors in the differences in the test output. Since the results obtained from the experiments included many products or development factors in the application and production areas that are important, the fact that this study was carried out with aluminum material and the results of the experiments in this direction became a factor increasing the circulation in these processes. In our studies, one type of fin was used.
