Abstract
This paper presents the geothermal analysis of Uturu--Nigeria using the Rayleigh-Ritz-Chebyshev collocation method.To develop the optimal geothermal design parameters for theUturu-okigwe axis, the developed model was used to analyze thegeothermal performance and investigate the effects of geothermalparameters using a longitudinal fin. The results, however, showedthat whenever there is an increase in convective, radioactive, andmagnetic parameters, the rate of heat transferred from thegeothermal longitudinal fin increases. The result also showed thatthe Rayleigh-Ritz-Chebyshev spectral collocation method providedthe best fit for analyzing the geothermal parameters of Uturu.
