Entransy Dissipation Rate

In this study, the simulated annealing (SA) algorithm was adopted to optimize the geometry of horizontal plate fin heat sink by the extreme entransy dissipation principle. The alculation of the entransy dissipation rate was presented in detail. Using the entransy dissipation rate as the objective condition, the geometry optimization of the fin heat sink was conducted. To verify the results, the heat source temperature and the entropy generation rate were also calculated in the procedure. It is found that the entrasy dissipation rate, entropy generation and heat source temperature have the similar trend. The extreme entransy dissipation principle and minimization of entropy generation play similar roles in the geometry optimization of plate fin heat sink.
