Abstract
Vertical, rectangular, finned surfaces are used to effect heat transfer on much equipment. Lack of data showing the effect of various fin geometries on free-convection heat transfer prompted this experimentation. The results provide preliminary design data. For a given temperature, an optimum value of the ratio of fin height to the distance between fins is indicated. The way this ratio varies with fin temperature is also given.
