The heat transfer of a transistor can be increased by inserting it into
an aluminum base (k = 200 W/m⋅K) which has 12 longitudinal fins
fabricated entirely on their external surface. The radius of the transistor and the
height are r1 = 2 mm and H = 6 mm, respectively, while the fins are
of length L = r3 - r2 = 10 mm and uniform thickness t = 0.7 mm. The thickness of the
the base of the sleeve is r2 - r1 = 1 mm, and the contact resistance of the interface
base-transistor is R″t,c = 10-3 m2 ⋅K/W. Air at T∞ = 20°C flows over the
surface of the fin, which provides a convection coefficient
approximately uniform of h = 25 W/m2⋅K.

it is maintained at 100°C, while the surfaces of the rods are exposed to
ambient air at 20°C.

Exercise 3.113
An experimental setup to measure the thermal conductivity of materials

aspects, except that one is made of a standard material of
known thermal conductivity, kA, while the other is made with the
material whose thermal conductivity, kB, is desired to be known. Both rods

a fluid at temperature T∞, and they are equipped with thermocouples to measure the

An air heater consists of a steel tube (k= 20 W/m·K), with radii
internal and external der1 = 13 mm yr2 = 16 mm, respectively, and eight fins
longitudinals fully made, each with a thickness of 3 mm. The
fins extend to a concentric tube, which has a radius of 40 mm and is insulated
on the external surface. Water at temperature T∞,i= 90°C flows through the
internal tube, while air at T∞,o = 25°C flows through the annular region
formed by the largest concentric tube.
