| Abstract | Boiling water in small channels that are formed along turbine blades has been examined since the 1970s as a means to dissipating large amounts of heat. Later, similar geometries could be found in cooling systems for computers, fusion reactors, rocket nozzles, avionics, hybrid vehicle power electronics, and space systems. This paper addresses (a) the implementation of two-phase micro-channel heat sinks in these applications, (b) the fluid physics and limitations of boiling in small passages, and effective tools for predicting the thermal performance of heat sinks, and (c) means to enhance this performance. It is shown that despite many hundreds of publications attempting to predict the performance of two-phase micro-channel heat sinks, there are only a handful of predictive tools that can tackle broad ranges of geometrical and operating parameters or different fluids. Development of these tools is complicated by a lack of reliable databases and the drastic differences in boiling behavior of different fluids in small passages. For example, flow boiling of certain fluids in very small diameter channels may be no different than in macro-channels. Conversely, other fluids may exhibit considerable ‘confinement’ even in seemingly large diameter channels. It is shown that cutting-edge heat transfer enhancement techniques, such as the use of nano-fluids and carbon nanotube coatings, with proven merits to single-phase macro systems, may not offer similar advantages to microchannel heat sinks. Better performance may be achieved by careful optimization of the heat sink’s geometrical parameters and by adapting a new class of hybrid cooling schemes that combine the benefits of micro-channel flow with those of jet impingement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
