AbstractIn this paper, the problem of temperature distribution for convective straight fins with constant and temperature-dependent thermal conductivity is solved by using artificial neural networks trained by the biogeography-based heterogeneous cuckoo search (BHCS) algorithm. We have solved the integer and noninteger order energy balance equation in order to analyse the temperature distribution in convective straight fins. We have compared our results with homotopy perturbation method (HPM), variational iteration method (VIM), and homotopy perturbation Sumudu transform method (HPSTM). The results show that the ANN–BHCS algorithm gives better results than other analytical techniques. We have further checked the efficiency of the ANN–BHCS algorithm by using the performance metrics MAD, TIC, and ENSE. We have calculated the values of MAD, TIC, and ENSE for case 1 of the problem, and histograms of these metrics show the efficiency of our algorithm.

In this paper, homotopy perturbation method has been used to evaluate the temperature distribution of annular fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and to determine the temperature distribution within the fin. This method is useful and practical for solving the nonlinear heat transfer equation, which is associated with variable thermal conductivity condition. The homotopy perturbation method provides an approximate analytical solution in the form of an infinite power series. The annular fin heat transfer rate with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity has been obtained as a function of thermo-geometric fin parameter and the thermal conductivity parameter describing the variation of the thermal conductivity

Abstract In this paper, the temperature distribution in a convective radial fins is analyzed through a fractional order energy balance equation with the consideration of internal heat generation and temperature dependent thermal conductivity. Adomian decomposition Sumudu transform method is used to study the influence of temperature distribution and the efficiency of radial fins for different values of thermal conductivity and to determine the role of thermal conductivity, thermo-geometric fin parameter as well as fractional order values in finding the temperature distribution and the fin efficiency of the convective radial fins. Finally, the efficiency of this proposed method has been studied by comparing the obtained results with the classical order results obtained by using numerical method and Variational Iteration Method (Coskun and Atay, 2007).

A recent mathematical technique of homotopy perturbation method (HPM) for solving nonlinear differential equations has been applied in this paper for the analysis of steady-state heat transfer in an annular fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and with the variation of thermogeometric fin parameters. Excellent benchmark agreement indicates that this method is a very simple but powerful technique and practical for solving nonlinear heat transfer equations and does not require large memory space that arises out of discretization of equations in numerical computations, particularly for multidimensional problems. Three conditions of heat transfer, namely, convection, radiation, and combined convection and radiation, are considered. Dimensionless parameters pertinent to design optimization are identified and their effects on fin heat transfer and efficiency are studied. Results indicate that the heat dissipation under combined mode from the fin surface is a convection-dominant phenomenon. However, it is also found that, at relatively high base temperature, radiation heat transfer becomes comparable to pure convection. It is worth noting that, for pure radiation condition, the dimensionless parameter of aspect ratio (AR) of a fin is a more desirable controlling parameter compared to other parameters in augmenting heat transfer rate without much compromise on fin efficiency.
