A convective, radiating rectangular fin is analysed by using the one dimensional analytic method. Instead of constant fin base temperature, heat conduction from the inner wall to the fin base is considered as the fin base boundary condition. Radiation heat transfer is approximately linearized. For different fin tip length, temperature profile along the normalized fin position is shown. The fin tip length for 98% of the maximum heat loss with the variations of fin base length and radiation characteristic number is listed. The maximum heat loss is presented as a function of the fin base length, radiation characteristic number and Biot number.

Numerical solutions are presented for the heat transfer from radiating and convecting fins. Consideration is given to thin, annular fins attached to a tube surface for which the temperature is constant. Fin to fin, fin to base, and fin to environment radiative interactions are considered. It is assumed that the radiating surface is diffuse-gray, the environment is black, and the surrounding fluid is transparent. The radiation terms are formulated by using Poljak's net-radiation methoad. The mathematical description of the simultaneously heat transport by conduction, convection, and radiation leads to a nonlinear integro-differential equation. This has been solved for a wide range of the pertinent physical parameters by using finite difference method and iteration method based on the Newton-Raphson technique. The temperature distributions, heat transfer rates, fin efficiencies, and fin effectivenesses are presented in dimensionless form. The results definitely indicate that the use of fins leads to a significant increase in heat transfer compared with the unfinned tube.

In almost all real situations, there will be a radiant interchange between adjacent fins with the base surface as well as with the external environment. In the problem of this study, a rectangular fin is attached to a based. Our concern is whether the convective fin efficiency can be increased by the radiation heat exchanged between the fin and the base surface and how much. If the fin temperature toward the tip increased by the effect of radiation, the convective heat transfer increase due to the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the surface temperature of the fin. If this true, the efficiency of the fin due to the radiation will increase. Attention is directed toward several parameters which have major roles on getting values of the fin efficiencies in several different values of parameters. Many different cases are, therefore, to be examined to have maximum fin efficiency by varying the values of each parameter.

Radiant tube heaters are widely used for indirect heating in heat treatment processes such as continuous annealing line(CAL) or continuous galvanizing line(CGL). Main issues for radiant tube are temperature uniformity, lifetime, thermal efficiency. To achieve higher heat release, the radiant tubes are fired at a higher fuel rate and therefore local overheating occur. A numerical simulation based on a commercial code FLUENT has been performed to investigate local overheating of radiant tube heaters. To minimize local overheating, the effects of radiating fins, flue gas recirculation(FGR), two-stage combustion were investigated. More uniform temperature distribution was achieved in the longitudinal direction within the tube with radiating fins and this contributed to increase the life of radiant tubes. Furthermore, the radiant tube with radiating fins was proven to be more efficient than the one without fins. The effects of flue gas recirculation and two stage combustion on the efficiency of the radiant tube were also considered and the results were presented.

The structures of sucker of two Cobiidae; Common freshwater goby and Triden goby were observed by light and electron microscopy. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the characteristic narrow ridges and grooves on the apical portion of sucker of Common freshwater goby, and hexagonal structures similar to a honeycomb representing the intercellular junctional area on the middle and basal portions. Some ridges were present on the epithelial surface on the middle and basal portions. The openings of several mucus-secreting cells were present between main epithelial cells. Light and transmission electron microscopy revealed the core of the fin; soft rays with a surrounding dense collagen fiber layer. Some loosely arranged fibers (collagen fiber) radiated toward the surface epithelium. The surface epithelium was cuboidal or columnar in shape. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the coiled irregular ridges and grooves, which was less developed and had sparser distribution than in Common freshwater goby, on the apical portion of sucker of Triden goby. The middle and basal portions had honeycomb structures as in Common freshwater goby. Fewer mucoussecreting cells were present. Light and transmission electron microscopy showed the core of soft rays, dense collagen fiber layer, however, the radiating fibers observed in the Common freshwater goby was rarely present. The sucker was thinner because the epithelium is squamous or polygonal in shape and rare presence of the radiating fibers.
