Abstract
This research introduces a new approach to enhance fin efficiency by utilizing ternary nanofluid. The primary goal of this study research is to develop an energy model for fin by utilizing shape factors. To construct the model, various factors such as natural convection, and thermal radiation are incorporated. It is evident that the thermal conductivity coefficient, spanning a specific range from 
, and the influence of natural convection are pivotal factors affecting the energy performance of the fins. The reliable cooling method for fin is found to be the utilization of thermal radiation (
). In addition, a heating source 
is introduced alongside a ternary nanomaterial with hexahedron and tetrahedron nanoparticles (Al2O3–CuO–Cu) with a concentration factor of up to 2% to enhance the energy capacity of the fin. The essential terms are categorized into dimensionless parameters, and their effects in graphical form on both the thermal stresses and efficiency of the fin are investigated. The results reveal that the tangential stress exhibits greater compression in the proximity of the fin’s base region, while larger tensile stresses are observed near the tip radius. Furthermore, the cooling effects of the fin are more noticeable with improvement in radiative and convective characteristics.
