Abstract

This research paper represents the experimental study and numerical study of temperature distribution and
heat transfer along the length of the brass fin of cylindrical cross section, for that we utilize the Natural and Forced Pin
Fin apparatus and utilize ANSYS 15.0 for the thermal simulation and compare the result of experimental setup with the
simulation done on ANSYS 15.0, here we consider only natural convection done on the system and calculate the heat
transfer coefficient of convection and then find the temperature distribution along the various distance through the fin
and compare it with the simulation. We get the nearly same results by comparing the Mathematical Calculation,
experimental setup and a finite Element simulation.
