Analysis of Convective Finns to Increase the Efficiency of Radiators used in Heating Systems

This article discusses ways to improve the heating efficiency of panel radiators used in heating systems. The term panel radiator is commonly used to refer to panel and panel convector radiators. It is currently the most widely used solution in construction and industry. Panel radiators are made of steel, into which metal plates are welded to form small channels for water flow. The power of the radiator can be increased by attaching it to the panel in the form of corrugated sheets, which increases the heat transfer surface area and therefore the heat transfer of the radiator. Such a device is called a panel convector or panel convection radiator.
