    The document analyzes heat transfer of rectangular engine cylinder fins made of magnesium and aluminum alloys. It discusses conduction, convection and radiation as heat transfer processes and assumptions made in the analysis. Rectangular fins are designed to increase surface area and cooling. Analysis shows maximum heat flux and temperature for aluminum and magnesium alloy fins, with magnesium alloy fins having higher values. Future work will analyze more shapes like circular, triangular and parabolic fins to determine the most efficient design and material.

    material.
    ▰ To identify suitable material for the
    ▰ Convection is the transfer of heat due to the bulk
    engine cylinder fins. Material used are
    movement of molecules within fluids
    Magnesium and Aluminium alloys.
    ▰ Heat transfer by thermal
    radiation is transfer of heat by electromagnetic
    waves. It requires no matter or medium to be
    present.
    Fins (Extended Surfaces)

    ▰ Fins are the extended surfaces that are linked to any surface in order to
    increase the rate of heat transfer from that surface. These are used when
    the available surface is found inadequate to transfer the required quantity
    of heat with the available temperature drop and convective heat transfer
    coefficient.
    ▰ A fin accommodates energy transfer by conduction within its boundaries,
    while its exposed surfaces transfer energy to the surroundings by
    convection or radiation or both.
    ▰ A plain fin may increases the surface area but a special shape extended
    surface may increase heat transfer coefficient in addition to the heat
    exchanger.
    Assumptions

    The analytical expressions given for these profiles are based on the following assumptions:
    ▰ The heat conduction in the fin is steady and one dimensional.
    ▰ The fin material is homogeneous and isotropic.
    ▰ There is no energy generation in the fin.
    ▰ The convective environment is characterized by a uniform and constant heat transfer coefficient and temperatures.
    ▰ The fin has a constant thermal conductivity.
    ▰ The contact between the base of the fin and the primary surface is perfect.
    ▰ The fin has a constant base temperature.
    Analysis of Aluminium alloy:

    ▰ Figure shows that the maximum heat flux value ▰ Figure shows that maximum value of temperature is
    1.3359 (W/mm2) for Rectangular fin of Al alloy. 564.4 K and minimum temperature is 330.33 K.
    Analysis of Magnesium alloy:

    ▰ Figure shows that the maximum value of ▰ Figure shows that maximum value of
    heat flux is 1.8099 (W/mm2) inside the temperature is 626.71 K and minimum
    Rectangular fin of Mg alloy. temperature is 338.97 K.
    Work direction

    ▰ We are going to carry out the similar analysis for even more shapes like Circular, Triangular and Parabolic
    fins and will see which fin provides the best efficiency.
    ▰ After carrying out the analysis of all shapes, we’re going to see how our analysis compares to the existing
    researches in the same field and which shape provides maximum heat dissipation and which material is
    more suitable to be used.
