With the increase of performance demands, the nonuniformity of on-chip power dissipation becomes greater, causing localized high heat flux hot spots that can degrade the processor performance and reliability. In this paper, a three-dimensional model of the copper microchannel heat sink, with hot spot heating and background heating on the back, was developed and used for numerical simulation to predict the hot spot cooling performance. The hot spot is cooled by localized cross channels. The pressure drop, thermal resistance and effects of hot spot heat flux and fluid flow velocity on the cooling of on-chip hot spots, are investigated in detail.

High power electronics are widely used in many different areas such as integrated circuit (IC) boards in nuclear reactor control system. Thermal management of electronic devices has been a topic of great interest among many researchers over the last few decades. Microchannel is one of several high-heat-flux removal techniques. Nanofluids with enhanced thermal conductivity and strong temperature- and size-dependent thermal properties are expected to be utilized in microchannels as coolants, which leads to a promising future for such high-heat-flux systems as cooling systems. The performance of the microchannel heat sink (MCHS) using water and Al2O3/water nanofluids, with consideration of different substrate materials, is numerically investigated and compared in the present paper to identify the combined effects of working fluids and substrate materials on the thermal resistance, pumping power and temperature distribution on the substrate surface of a heat sink.

Convective Boiling

The present study explores experimentally the mechanism of critical heat flux (CHF) of FC-72 in a 10 parallel diverging microchannel heat sink with different distributions of artificial nucleation sites (ANS). The effects of mass flux and number of ANS with or without degassing on CHF of FC-72 are investigated. During CHF, flow visualization shows that the dryout of liquid film in annular flow appears near the outlet region with frequent rewetting of liquid film with slug bubble or rewetting of liquid column on the dryout surface. The results demonstrate that diverging microchannels with ANS distributed uniformly along the whole channel (Type-2 system) shows better flow boiling performance and higher CHF and can be recommended as a high-heat-flux microchannel heat sink. Moreover, five CHF correlations in the literature for flow boiling in microchannels are compared, which generally underpredict the CHF data of the present study. This suggests that the present diverging design with ANS enhances the CHF. The comparison also reveals that Bowers and Mudawar correlation predicts the present data best with MAE of 15.8% for the type-2 system.
