The efficiency, temperature distribution, and temperature at the tip of straight rectangular, growing and decaying moving exponential fins are investigated in this article. The influence of internal heat generation, surface and surrounding temperatures, convection-conduction, Peclet number and radiation-conduction is studied numerically on the efficiency, temperature profile, and temperature at the tip of the fin. Differential transform method is used to investigate the problem. It is revealed that thermal and thermo-geometric characteristics have a significant impact on the performance, temperature distribution, and temperature of the fin's tip.The results show that the temperature distribution of decaying exponential and rectangular fins is approximately $ 15 $ and $ 7\% $ higher than growing exponential and rectangular fins respectively. It is estimated that the temperature distribution of the fin increases by approximately $ 6\% $ when the porosity parameter is increased from $ 0.1 $ to $ 0.5 $. It is also observed that the decay exponential fin has better efficiency compared to growing exponential fin which offers significant advantages in mechanical engineering.
