The present study provides a thorough numerical analysis of natural convection heat transfer from a horizontal cylinder with external longitudinal fins. The Three-dimensional(3D) forms of Continuity, Navier-stokes, and the energy equations have been solved to understand the flow field and temperature distribution using the Ansys Fluent software. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of fin length Lf, fin thickness (t), number of fins (N) and material of fin (Aluminum & Steel) on the parameters namely, the heat transfer rate from the inner isothermal wall and effectiveness (Q*)of the system for a constant Rayleigh number in the laminar range (Ra ≤ 106). Additionally, the effect of two different orientations (A&B) of fins has been discussed. Orientation-A consists of fins starting from horizontal plane placed at equal angular spacing subsequently, whereas the fins in orientation-B originate from the vertical plane followed with equal angular spacing. Non-dimensional fin length (L*) is being varied from 0.222 to 2, non-dimensional fin thickness (t*) as 0.022 ~0.044 and the number of fins (N) between 6~24. It is observed that for a fixed number of fins there exists an optimum fin length and for a fixed fin length there exists an optimum fin thickness & an optimum number of fins. For a fixed number of fins there exist an optimum fin length and maximum effectiveness, the maximum possible effectiveness for the taken fin-tube system is 4.34 for 12 fins. The maximum effectiveness reported in the current study was 1.86 for L*=0.444, t*=0.022 and N=12. Furthermore, the optimum length for N=12 came out to be L*=1.8.
