Abstract

Abstract The main objective of this experimental study is to quantify and compare the heat transfer enhancement of carbon foam and aluminum fins in natural convection. The study measures steady state heat transfer from a heated vertical pipe, with and without porous medium. The largest increase in Nusselt number was achieved by a solid carbon foam sleeve, which was about 2.5 times greater than a bare copper pipe.
