One of the primary ways to enhance heat transfer rate is to use extended surfaces or fins. The heat transfer mechanism of fin is to conduct heat from the heat source to fin surface by its thermal conduction, and then dissipates it to surrounding medium by convection. Most common application areas of fins are in combustion engines, heat exchangers and cooling of electronic equipments. Early stud...

The world is looking towards producing products which consume less power without compromising on quality of life. The increase in use of refrigeration and air conditioning appliances are contributing to global warming. The world wide temperatures are shooting up at an increasing rate. This paper presents a design of roll bond evaporator as the heat exchanger to provide cooling in room air condi...
