  ABSTRACT: Fins are used for enhancement of heat transfer. Triangular fins are arranged in form of nozzle and heat transfer coefficient is calculated. Angle of taper of nozzle is changed i.e. angles of triangles are varied and then heat transfer coefficient is calculated. Total finned area of all fins is almost the same. Number of fins and orientation of fins are different. In this study to calculate heat transfer coefficient of unfinned area open channel is considered where density and pressure are constant. This study shows that heat transfer is enhanced by 213%, 268% and 339% using 30°, 45° and 60° fins. Computational results show that heat transfer is enhanced by 108%, 130%, 146% using 30°, 45° and 60° fins.
