Viscous dissipation effects on thermal transport characteristics of combined pressure and electroosmotically driven flow in microchannels

Thermally fully developed electroosmotic flow through a rectangular microchannel

“…The Nusselt number obtained in the present study and the one given in previous work [15] are in quite agreement.…”

Transient MHD heat transfer and entropy generation in a microparallel channel combined with pressure and electroosmotic effects

“…In addition, typical EOF velocity has the order O(v HS ) $5 Â 10 À3 m/s and the strength of transverse electrical field has the order O(E z ) $ 0-30 V/m, Therefore, the order of S can be evaluated, and its range is changed from 0 to 6 Â 10 3 . The other dimensionless parameters involved in the present study are fixed due to extensive existing literature [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]. For example, if no special statement, K = 10, X = 1 and S y + S z = 1.…”

“…Sun et al [26] obtained semi-analytical solution for thermally fully developed EOF of power-law fluids in a circular microchannel. Many other studies of thermally fully developed flows [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and thermally developing flows [35][36][37] were performed to analyze the heat transfer characteristics of combined pressure-driven and EOF through microchannels. It was found from these studies that viscous dissipation and Joule heating played very significant roles in the microscale heat transfer process.…”

Effects of non-Newtonian power law rheology on mass transport of a neutral solute for electro-osmotic flow in a porous microtube

“…27 Various studies involving power law and viscoelastic fluid models are available to characterize the flow behavior 28,29 and heat transfer to quantify the Nusselt number [30][31][32][33] in impervious conduits. An excellent example of microfluidic technique for molecular sensing has been described by Chang and Yossifon.…”
