Thermal and hydraulic characteristics study of different dimpled micro-channel heat sinks

Analysis of Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow in a Microchannel Heat Sink with Sidewall Dimples and Fillet Profile

“…Increase deamnd in energy sector motvited reserchers to conduct studies to enhance understanding on the heat transfer in many applications [39,40] .With continuous progress in the enhancement technology methods in the performance of thermal cooling and heat transfer removal, microchannel heat sink devices still play an important role in cooling devices such as thermoelectric devices that are used to cool down the electric chips of computers for example. Various studies have been conducted on the heat transfer improvement in cooling applications to further understand the physical concept of cooling in microchannels [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Maintaining microelectronic devices within operation temperatures is vital to protect such components.…”
