Need to show the temperature distributions profile and its velocity profile and

read each case and as comparative between Impinging flow direction and
parallel flow. Keep in mind the critical thickness of graphene for parallel flow is
0.35mm where is least thermal resistance and then started to increase, the
critical thickness of graphene is 0.45mm where is the least thermal resistance
and then started to increase ..

Impinging flow:

You have conducted a simulation in ANSYS on a fin exposed to impinging flow at different thicknesses of coating.
From your results, it appears that you have recorded the maximum and minimum temperature and velocity values
for each thickness of coating.

For the 0.01mm thickness of coating, the maximum temperature value is 4.070e+02K, while the minimum
temperature is 3.100e+02K. The maximum and minimum velocity values for this thickness are 0 and 1.0035
meters per second, respectively. As the thickness of the coating increases, the maximum and minimum temperature
values remain the same, but the velocity values increase.

For the 0.30mm thickness of coating, the maximum and minimum temperature values are the same as for 0.01mm
thickness, but the maximum velocity value has increased to 1.173 meters per second. Similarly, for the 0.45mm
thickness of coating, the temperature values remain constant, but the maximum velocity value has increased to
1.236 meters per second.

For the 0.55mm thickness of coating, the maximum and minimum temperature values remain the same, while the
maximum velocity value has further increased to 1.402 meters per second.

From the results, it can be concluded that as the thickness of the coating increases, the maximum and minimum
temperature values remain constant, but the maximum velocity values increase. It is important to note that the
velocity values for all thicknesses of coating are positive, indicating that there is flow in the system.

Parallel Flow:

you have conducted another simulation in ANSYS on a fin with a parallel flow direction, and recorded the
maximum and minimum temperature and velocity values for different thicknesses of coating and heights of the
fins.

For the 0.01mm thickness of coating, the maximum temperature value is 407K, while the minimum temperature is
310K. The maximum and minimum velocity values for this thickness are 1.151 m/s and 0 m/s, respectively.
For the 0.30mm thickness of coating, the maximum and minimum temperature values are the same as for 0.01mm
thickness, but the maximum velocity value has increased to 1.193 m/s.

For the 0.35mm thickness of coating, the temperature values remain the same as for the previous cases, but the
maximum velocity value has further increased to 1.248 m/s.

For the 0.45mm thickness of coating, the temperature values remain constant, but the maximum velocity value is
slightly lower than the previous case, at 1.199 m/s.

For the 0.55mm thickness of coating, the maximum and minimum temperature values remain the same, while the
maximum velocity value has increased to 1.271 m/s.

The results show that increasing the thickness of the coating from 0.01mm to 0.55mm did not have a significant
effect on temperature values, with the maximum and minimum temperatures remaining constant. However,
increasing the thickness of the coating from 0.01mm to 0.55mm resulted in a gradual increase in maximum
velocity values from 1.151 m/s to 1.271 m/s. The highest velocity value was observed for the 0.55mm thickness of
coating. Overall, the simulation suggests that increasing the thickness of the coating can improve the flow velocity,
which could have practical applications in heat transfer systems

For the height of the fins, you increased it by 15mm and 3mm. For the 15mm height, the maximum and minimum
temperature values are 410K and 310K, respectively, while the maximum velocity is 1.013 m/s and the minimum
velocity is 0 m/s. For the 3mm height, the maximum and minimum temperature values are the same as for the
previous cases, while the maximum velocity is slightly higher than the 15mm height case, at 1.033 m/s.

However, the maximum and minimum temperature values remain constant at 410K and 310K, respectively, for
both heights. This suggests that changing the height of the fins does not have a significant effect on temperature
values, but can slightly improve the flow velocity. Overall, the simulation suggests that increasing the height of the
fins could potentially enhance the heat transfer performance in the system by improving the flow velocity.
