Numerical Predictions

This paper presents an experimental study of single-phase heat transfer characteristics of binary methanol-water mixtures in a micro-channel heat sink containing an array of 22 microchannels with 240μm × 630μm cross-section. Pure water, pure methanol, and five methanol-water mixtures with methanol molar fraction of 16%, 36%, 50%, 63% and 82% were tested. Key parametric trends were identified and discussed. The experimental study was complemented by a three-dimensional numerical simulation. Numerical predictions and experimental data are in good agreement with a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.87%.

Laminar Flow Conditions

Micro-channel heat sinks are currently at the forefront of cooling technologies for computer chips where the input heat flux is projected to exceed 100 W/cm2 [1, 2]. The quest for better heat-sink designs has produced different ideas, one of which is the idea of using multi-layered micro-channel heat sinks [3, 4]. The objectives of the present investigation were to conduct a detailed numerical study of the hydrodynamic and thermal behavior of a two-layered micro-channel heat sink and to compare the performance of the two-layered heat sink with that of a single-layered sink under laminar flow conditions.
