Abstract – This report presents the results of an experimental analysis of heat transfer enhancement using different sizes of aero foil Pin-fin with circular holes by forced convection. The project aimed to investigate the thermal performance of various types of aero foil shape fins with circular slots of aluminum material, in terms of heat transfer coefficient, Nusselt number, friction factor, and effectiveness of fins. The experiment was conducted on a test section with an internal cross-section along the direction of flow. The experiment was carried out for 12 Pin Fin sets with variations in parameters such as height, number of holes, and diameter of these holes, and velocity was varied from 3m/s to 12m/s. The report outlines the methodology used in the experiment and provides a detailed analysis of the results. Overall, the report concludes that the aero foil Pin-fin with circular holes is a highly efficient heat transfer component with the potential for application in various industrial fields.
