Heat dissipation is a very important subject when dealing with industrial application especially in modern semiconductor related applications. Several techniques have been developed to solve the heat generated problem, such as heat dissipation device in IC packaging, high heat conductivity materials, heat tube, force convection, etc. Porous material is used in this study. Porous material is known to have large interior surface, therefore, with proper force convection; it can easily carry heat away. Micro porous ceramic (porous size: 490 μm) is attached to uninterruptible power supply (UPS) power chips. The increase of the heat dissipation rate improves UPS performance. Heat transfer properties comparisons for power chip with and without micro porous materials attached are studies. Also, heat transfer rate under different fan speeds (force convection) is studied. The results show that, heat transfer increases with the use of micro porous materials, the effectiveness ranges between 2–22%. Also, the heat transfer rate varies with air flow rate, the increase of heat transfer is about 4–6%. The dust effect was also performed; experimental results show that heat transfer rate will not be affected by the accumulated dust if a micro porous material is applied.

Contemporary electronic systems currently generate high heat fluxes at component level. Impingement cooling is an effective way to generate high heat transfer coefficients in order to meet thermal constraints. This paper investigates the heat transfer and hydrodynamic characteristics of a confined impinging liquid jet with a nozzle-to-plate spacing (H/D) ratio of 0.5. A custom measurement facility was created to infer local heat transfer rates from infra-red images of a jet impinging on a 12.5μm thick stainless steel foil configured to generate uniform heat flux. Particle-Image Velocimetry (PIV) was performed in order to obtain quantitative velocity data within the jet. A series of experiments were run for Reynolds numbers (Re) in the range of 1,000–24,000 for a jet of 8 mm diameter (D). For Re > 4,000, the local heat transfer rate — in terms of Nusselt number (Nu) as a function of dimensionless radius (r/D) — had a plateau section between 0 < r/D < 0.6 followed by a peak at r/D ∼ 1.35. For higher Re the Nu peak exceeds that of the plateau section. For Re < 4,000, a plateau section exists between 0 < r/D < 0.4 followed by a shoulder located between 1 < r/D < 1.4. The PIV data for Re > 4,000 showed a strong vortex in the area of the secondary peak in Nu which was not present in the lower Re range. This phenomenon — the local peaks of heat transfer rate — has been previously reported in the literature with a degree of uncertainty as to the related fluid mechanics. This paper contributes to an understanding of the fluidic phenomenon responsible for the distribution of heat transfer rate in confined jets.

If the heat in the heat engine is not removed properly, it causes the development of the detonation and eventually reduces the efficiency of the engine, so that the heat dissipation rate of the cylinder an important and interesting task is the option. The cylinder of the engine is one of the most important automotive components, variations of high temperature and thermal loads. To cool the cylinder, the ribs are provided on the surface of the cylinder, to increase the rate of heat transfer. By a thermal analysis of the motor cylinder and the ribs that surround it, it is useful to know the heat transfer rate and the temperature distribution inside the cylinder. We know that we can increase the heat dissipation rate by increasing the surface so it is very difficult to design such a complex motor. The main objective of this project is to analyze thermal properties such as thermal directed flow, total heat flow and temperature distribution. The cooling mechanism of the air cooled engine depends mainly on the design of the cylinder head and the block ribs. The cooling fins are used to increase the heat transfer rate of the specified surface. The life and efficiency of the engine can be improved by efficient cooling. The finite element method was used using the ANSYS software as a simulation tool for analysis.

It is requested to develop a small and high performance heat exchanger for small size energy equipments such as fuel cells and CO2 heat pumps, et.al... In author’s previous studies, a high pressure resistant microchannel layers stacked heat exchanger has been developed. The heat exchanger is manufactured by diffusion bond technique. It can be used under high pressure condition larger than 15 MPa. Due to the high pressure resistance, the device can be applied for high flow rate condition with boiling and condensation. The objectives of the present study are to estimate the heat transfer performance of the heat exchanger and to investigate the thermal hydraulic behavior in the microchannel. The flow pattern in a glass capillary tube is observed by fabricating visualization system. As the results, it is measured that the present device attained high heat transfer quantity of approximately 7000 W on steam condensation despite the weight is only 230 g. The measurement results clarified that the device achieves very high heat transfer rate of hundreds times larger than that of the existing heat exchanger. Furthermore, visualization experiment with single glass pipe is conducted to clarify the flow condensation behavior in the microchannel. In the experiment, the microchannel of Pyrex glass is surrounded by the subcooling water. The flow patterns can visualized from the side of the microchannel. Flow patterns observations are conducted for various inlet pressure and temperatures of the subcooling water. It is observed that the continuous flow transition from annular and injection flow to slug-bubble flow in the microchannel. The reason of large heat transfer rate per unit volume is discussed as relating to narrow interval of each microchannels and small thermal resistance.

Abstract The present study is proposed to investigate the effects of various lengths and different locations of the heater on the left sidewall in a square lid-driven porous cavity filled with nanofluid. A higher temperature is maintained on the left wall where three different lengths and three different locations of the heat source are considered for the analysis. The right wall is kept at a lower temperature while the top and bottom walls, and the remaining portions of the heated wall are adiabatic. The governing equations are solved by finite volume method. The results show that among the different lengths of the heat source, an enhancement in the heat transfer rate is observed only for the length LH = 1/3 of the heat source. In the case of location of the heat source, the overall heat transfer rate is increased when the heat source is located at the top of the hot wall. For Ri = 1 and 0.01, a better heat transfer rate is obtained when the heat source is placed at the top of the hot wall whereas for Ri = 100, it occurs when the heating portion is at the middle of the hot wall. As the solid volume fraction increases, the viscosity of the fluid is increased, which causes a reduction in the flow intensity. An addition of nanoparticles in the base fluid enhances the overall heat transfer rate significantly for all Da considered. The permeability of the porous medium plays a major role in convection of nanofluid than porosity. A high heat transfer rate (57.26%) is attained for Da = 10−1 and χ = 0.06.

The Engine chamber is one of the essential engine components, that is subjected to over the top temperature differences and thermal stresses. Fins are set on the surface of the cylinder to improve the quantity of heat exchange by convection. When fuel is burned in an engine, heat is produced. Additional heat is also generated by friction between the moving parts. In air-cooled I.C engine, extended surfaces called fins are provided at the periphery of engine cylinder to increase heat transfer rate. That is why the analysis of fin is important to increase the heat transfer rate. The main of aim of this work is to study various researches done in past to improve heat transfer rate of cooling fins by changing cylinder fin geometry and material. In the present work, Experiments have been performed to discover the temperature variations inside the fins made in four kind geometries (plate Fins, Circular Pin fins, plate fins with holes, and draft Pin fins) and consistent state heat exchange examination has been studied utilizing a finite element software ANSYS to test and approve results. The temperature variations at various areas of fins models are evaluated by FEM and compared models of fins performance by heat flux and temperature variations obtained by experimentally in Analysis. The principle implemented in this project is to expand the heat dissipation rate by utilizing the wind flow. The main aim of the study is to enhance the thermal properties by shifting geometry, material, and design of fins

Heat pipes, commonly used for heat dissipation and thermal management in small electronic and communication devices, are regarded as an excellent solution. Heat pipes must be in surface rather than line contact to be applied to the module and system-level heat dissipation package. As such, a round copper heat pipe is transformed into a plate-like shape through a secondary press process. In this study, an extrusion structure is designed to be sloped to solve the difficulty of making it relatively thin compared with the large area of the plate structure. Specifically, substantial partitions separating the working fluid flow space in the plate-type heat pipe are designed to be inclined at 45 deg, and the extruded envelope is developed to obtain the desired total thickness through the secondary press process. The capillary structure is inserted and positioned within the envelope prior to the secondary press process. In this study, an aluminum flat heat pipe (AFHP) with 0.95 mm total thickness, 150 mm total length, and a capillary structure with braided or carbon wire bundles added thereto was designed and manufactured. Performance test results indicated that the heat transfer performance of the AFHP with inclined wall did not show any deterioration characteristic compared with the AFHP with a normal vertical wall. The isothermal characteristics and heat transfer rate of the AFHP with Cu braid wick were superior to those of AFHP with a simple rectangular groove wick. By contrast, when the carbon wire bundle is added in the Cu braid, the isothermal characteristic was enhanced twice, and the heat transfer rate was 15.5 W by improving approximately 42% under the conditions that inclination angle is −90 deg and the evaporator temperature does not exceed 110 °C.

In this work, a triple concentric-tube heat exchanger (TCTH) with or without the application of longitudinal fins is numerically studied concerning its thermohydraulic performance. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, Ansys FLUENT was used to perform the simulations to study the heat transfer enhancement using three different types of hot fluids, i.e. Crude oil, engine oil, and light diesel oil. The validated numerical model was first employed to investigate the heat transfer performance of unfinned TCTHE. Then, longitudinal fins were modeled and investigated for comparative analyses of the thermohydraulic performances of both constructions. To predict the heat exchanger performance, key parameters such as heat flux and temperature field distribution were evaluated. Results revealed that modifying the heat exchanger with longitudinal fins on the tube surface dramatically improves its heat transfer rate. Therefore, this research is designed to keep in view further exploring the potential of longitudinal fins in obtaining an improved performance from these types of heat exchanger devices. The results showed that the crude oil fluid has high heat transfer rate than the other two fluids light diesel oil and engine oil. With the application of fins on the tubes’ surfaces, a significant heat transfer exchange among the fluids streams is observed.
