Entropy generation from convective-radiative moving exponential porous fins with variable thermal conductivity and internal heat generations

© 2022. The Author(s)..

The performance and thermal properties of convective-radiative rectangular and moving exponential porous fins with variable thermal conductivity together with internal heat generation are investigated. The second law of thermodynamics is used to investigate entropy generation in the proposed fins. The model is numerically solved using shooting technique. It is observed that the entropy generation depends on porosity parameter, temperature ratio, temperature distribution, thermal conductivity and fins structure. It is noted that entropy generation for a decay exponential fin is higher than that of a rectangular fin which is greater than that of a growing exponential fin. Moreover, entropy generation decreases as thermal conductivity increases. The results also reveal that entropy generation is maximum at the fin's base and the average entropy production depends on porosity parameters and temperature ratio. It is further reveal that the temperature ratio has a smaller amount of influence on entropy as compared to porosity parameter. It is concluded that when the temperature ratio is increases from 1.1 to 1.9, the entropy generation number is also increase by [Formula: see text] approximately. However, increasing porosity from 1 to 80 gives 14-fold increase in average entropy generation.
