We numerically evaluated the thermal performance of microchannel heat sinks, considering rectangular, hexagonal, and circular cross-sections. Moreover, as a passive heat transfer augmentation technique, dimples were added to improve the rectangular microchannel heat sinks. These simulations use nanofluids based on TiO2 nanoparticles or nanotubes dispersed in bidistilled water as working fluids. The mathematical model considered variable thermophysical properties of the nanofluids; for this purpose, polynomial fittings correlate the dependence of the thermophysical properties on the temperature

Microchannel heat sinks are widely used in thermal management systems due to their compact design and efficient heat transfer.

Abstract:
With the development of miniaturized and enormous heat density generating novel technologies, the microchannel heat sink is rapidly establishing itself in modern cooling fields. Enhancement of heat transfer performance of microchannels is done by incorporating improved design structure, changing working fluids and flow conditions, using different materials for fabrication, etc. Coupling of two parameters influencing heat transfer performance of microchannels is in a nascent age, and complex coupling of heat transfer influencing parameters of microchannel sinks has not been clearly understood y

Abstract:
Numerical investigations with regard to the thermal characteristics of water cooled single stack and multistack microchannel heat sinks subjected to nonuniform base heating are conducted. Nonuniformities in base heating are accomplished by applying gradually increasing and gradually decreasing base heat fluxes with respect to coolant flow direction in the heat sink. The effects of heat concentration upstream, downstream, and in the center half of the microchannel heat sinks (similar to a hotspot) are also studied. Both parallel flow and counter coolant flow conditions in the heat sink are cons

Abstract:
Developments in applications such as rocket nozzles, miniature nuclear reactors and solar thermal generation pose high-density heat dissipation challenges. In these applications, a large amount heat must be removed in a limited space under high temperature. In order to handle this kind of cooling problem, this paper proposes liquid metal-based microchannel heat sinks. Using a numerical method, the flow and heat transfer performances of liquid metal-based heat sinks with different working fluid types, diverse microchannel cross-section shapes and various inlet velocities were studied.

For the problem of high waste heat in the active area of high-power VCSEL arrays and the difficulty of heat dissipation, we took advantage of laser 3D printing technology and combined it with the relevant principles of fluid-structure coupling, three kinds of microchannel heat sink with different structures of pin-fin, honeycomb, and double-layer reflow were designed. The heat dissipation capacity of three kinds of heat sinks to the heat flux density 200 W/cm2 VCSEL array and the influence of the key characteristics of the microchannel on the heat dissipation capacity was studied.

Abstract This research mainly proposed three new types of micro-channel heat sink structures. Numerical simulations and simulation calculations were carried out on the heat sink structure. The three groups of inlet flow rates were used as the main variables to analyse the three new types of heat sinks, model flow characteristics and heat transfer performance. In addition, it was compared with the traditional rectangular micro-channel heat sink (RT-MCHS).

Abstract:
Microchannel heat sink is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often a liquid coolant, where it is dissipated away from the device, thereby allowing regulation of the device's temperature at optimum levels. It is widely used in computers that are used to cool central processing units or graphic processors. In order to achieve great heat transfer performance of microchannel heat sink, passive method are used in this research particularly the flow disruption and secondary channel.

Abstract Numerical studies have been performed to analyze the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of nine microchannel heat sinks (MCHS) with different shapes and different arrangements of the ribs and cavities on the sidewalls, using three common shapes (square, triangle, and circular) of ribs or cavities as the basic structure in this work. The boundary conditions, governing equations, friction factor (f), Nusselt number (Nu), and performance evaluation criteria (ξ) were considered to determine which design was the best in terms of the heat transfer, the pressure drop, and the overa

The objective function was created using the entropy generation minimisation criterion. In this study, we fixed the geometry of the microchannel, the amount of heat to be removed, and the properties of the cooling fluid. Moreover, we calculated the entropy generation rate, the
