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.

The heat transfer process between a body and its ambient is governed by an internal conductive resistance $$\left( {{\rm I}CR} \right)$$ and an external convective resistance $$(ECR).$$ The body can be considered to be a lumped heat capacity system if

Which of the following is a technique for forecasting?

In an ideal inventory control system, the economic lot size for a part is $$1000.$$ If the annual demand for the part is doubled, the new economic lot size required will be:
