In the current work, thermal behaviour analysis of a natural convection porous fin with internal heat generation and temperature-dependent thermal conductivity is studied. The developed symbolic heat transfer models are for the purpose of the investigation of the effects of various parameters on the thermal behaviour of the porous fin. It is shown that its governing nonlinear differential with proper boundary conditions is exactly solvable. To this aim, we reduce the order of differential equations first and then convert into a total differential equation by multiplying a convenient integrating factor. A full discussion and exact analytical solution in the implicit form is given for further physical interpretation and it is proved that a solution to the problem may not exist or the solution is mathematically unique depending on the values of the parameters of the model.
