The total efficiency, $${\eta _t}$$ for a finned surface may be defined as the ratio of the total heat transferred by the combined area of the fins, $${A_r},$$ and the exposed surface to that by the total area, $$A$$, if it were maintained at the base temp, $${T_0}.$$ Assuming uniform heat transfer coefficient over the entire surface, derive an expression for the relationship between efficiency and effectiveness of the fin.
