Series Solution for Steady Heat Transfer in a Heat-Generating Fin with Convection and Radiation

The steady heat transfer in a heat-generating fin with simultaneous surface convection and radiation is studied analytically using optimal homotopy asymptotic method (OHAM). The steady response of the fin depends on the convection-conduction parameter, radiation-conduction parameter, heat generation...
