Abstract
Abstract A porous fin of longitudinal geometry with different profiles like rectangular, triangular, and convex shapes is considered in the present investigation. The totally wet condition under the existence of natural convection and radiation has been examined. In addition, the generation of thermal‐dependent internal heat is studied. The analysis also concentrates on the material of the fin. Here, the fin made up of aluminum and copper metal is taken for scrutinization. The derived ordinary differential equation was solved by the differential transform method. The obtained consequences have been graphically interpreted. It is determined that the fin made up of aluminum material dissipates more heat than the copper material fin.
