Abstract
The main objectives of the heat transfer analysis is to enhance the heat transfer rate from system to surrounding. To transfer the heat from any system either by conduction or convection medium. Both modes of heat transfer has been enhanced by providing an additional equipments in the outer periphery of the heat transfer system.Fins are basically mechanical structures which are used to cool various structures by the process of convection. Most part of their design is basically limited by the design of the system. But still certain parameters and geometry could be modified to better heat transfer. In most of the cases simple fin geometry is preferred such as rectangular fins and circular fins. Many experimental works has been done to improve the heat release of the internal combustion engine cylinder and improves fin efficiency.This study presents the results of air flow and heat transfer in a light weight automobile engine, considering fins with dimple to increase the heat transfer rate. An analysis has been using ANSYS WORKBENCH version 12.0 was conducted to find the optimum number of dimples to maximizing the heat transfer across the Automobile engine body. The results indicate that the presence of fins with dimple shows improved results on the basis of heat transfer.
