ESTIMATION OF THE LENGTH CONSTANT OF A LONG COOLING FIN BY AN ANCIENT CHINESE ALGORITHM

ABSTRACT
In this paper, an ancient Chinese algorithm is used to estimate the length constant of a long cooling fin, and an approximate solution formulation is obtained. The obtained results show that this method is a simple but promising method without any requirement for advanced calculus.
