Non-Fourier heat transfer in a moving longitudinal radiative-convective dovetail fin

The purpose of this research is to estimate the non-Fourier temperature distribution in dovetail fin. The Cattaneo-Vernotte heat model is utilized to estimate heat conduction behavioral patterns in dovetail fin. In addition, the variation in the temperature profile has been inspected for both non-Fourier and Fourier models. The governing equation involves the linear variance of thermal conductivity, the power-law dependence of the heat transfer coefficient, and the constant surface emissivity. This equation is transmuted by using dimensionless variables, yielding a dimension-less partial differential equation (PDE). To solve the obtained PDE, a numerical technique called the finite difference method (FDM) is employed. The graphical illustration is provided to explain the upshot of thermal parameters on the temperature gradient. The significant findings of this investigation exhibit that as the scale of the convection and radiation variables rises, the thermal response in the fin gradually decreases. Also, the temperature field enhances for Peclet number and ambient temperature parameter. Moreover, the temperature drops from the fin's base to its tip for the Fourier effect. The temperature drops quickly at a point on the fin in comparison to the surrounding value, and this minimal temperature is preserved throughout the rest of the fin.
