Abstract

This paper deals with estimation of the optimal dimensions of arrays of plate fins cooled by forced convection. The optimization is achieved by minimizing the entropy generation rate using genetic algorithm-based evolutionary computing techniques. Results are presented for staggered plate fins configuration and continuous plate fins configuration. The effects of heat transfer and fluid friction on entropy generation rate are also reported.
