Heat removal from a rectangular fin embedded with longitudinal elliptical perforations is studied. 1D numerical simulation of the fin thermal dissipation performance is carried out by using the finite element technique. The perforations make full use of boundary-layer effect to improve heat transfer efficiency. The perforated fin is segregated into a number of elements using automatic mesh generation procedure. The number of finite elements can be changed as necessary according to the solution stability and convergence. The heat dissipation is calculated and matched up to that of the solid fin of the same size and thermal properties. The assessment refers satisfactory outcomes.
