Introduction
Objective
Determine the optimum size and material for
Safety Precaution
Hot Plate
Do not touch the hot plate with bare hands
plate
Limit use of older hot plates for flammable materials.
Hot Fin
Do not place on combustible materials
Do not touch with hand
Make sure to place it where individual can not burn
themselves.
Hot plate
Copper, aluminum, steel tall and short fins with
hash marks
Hand-held thermocouple
IR thermometer
Thermal gloves
Procedures
Plug in hot plate
Place fin on hot plate
Orient fin so temperature measurements can be
temperature
Procedures Cont.
Repeat step 4 until steady state is reached
Group members are responsible for choosing the
appropriate sampling interval for temperatures.
When steady state has been achieved, measure the

Thermocouple
Experimental data was closer to the theoretical
values.
Reading is done upon contact on the surface.

Experimental and theoretical data had major
discrepancies.
Reading was dependent on the amount of
energy will emit.

Equipment
Inaccurate reading with the two devices.
Conclusion
Copper is the best material to be used as a
cooling fin.
Highest rate of heat removal
