    A second type of heat sink fin arrangement is the straight fin. A variation on the straight fin heat sink is a cross-cut heat sink. A third type of heat sink is the flared fin heat sink, where the fins are not parallel to one another. Flaring the fins decreases flow resistance and makes more air go through the heat-sink fin channel; otherwise ...

  3. Fin (extended surface) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fin_(extended_surface)

    This is the ratio of the fin heat transfer rate to the heat transfer rate of the fin if the entire fin were at the base temperature, = ˙. in this equation is equal to the surface area of the fin. The fin efficiency will always be less than one, as assuming the temperature throughout the fin is at the base temperature would increase the heat ...

  4. Heat transfer through fins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_through_fins

    The fin material should preferably have high thermal conductivity. In most applications the fin is surrounded by a fluid in motion, [ 1 ] which heats or cools it quickly due to the large surface area, and subsequently the heat gets transferred to or from the body quickly due to the high thermal conductivity of the fin.

    The reaction is exothermic, releasing heat to soften the fats. Drain cleaners can also contain aluminum, which reacts with sodium hydroxide to produce bubbles of hydrogen gas that help to break up the clog. [11] The pressure buildup by gas generation can cause weaker pipes to burst, [11] and the heat generation can also soften plastic PVC pipes.
