Depleting energy resources have become the driving force for their conservation. Increasing
the system efficiencies is one method by which sustainability of energy may be ensured, for …

Active and passive cooling are the two possible methods for removing heat. An active
cooling system is the one that involves the use of energy as opposed to passive cooling that …

Lithium-ion batteries are widely used for battery electric (all-electric) vehicles (BEV) and
hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) due to their high energy and power density. An battery thermal …

Laminar liquid–water flow and heat transfer in three-dimensional wavy microchannels with
rectangular cross section are studied by numerical simulation. The flow field is investigated …

An experimental investigation was conducted to explore the validity of classical correlations
based on conventional-sized channels for predicting the thermal behavior in single-phase …

Experimental investigation has been conducted on the flow friction and heat transfer in
sinusoidal microchannels with rectangular cross sections. The microchannels considered …

New designs for ribbed microchannels (semi-circular and semi-elliptic) and filleted ribs are
numerically studied in the present paper. Four presented configurations include …

An energy-efficient micro heat sink is presented for the thermal management of
microprocessors with heterogeneous power distributions. The performance of the proposed …

Pressure drop of fully developed, laminar, incompressible flow in smooth mini and
microchannels of arbitrary cross-section is investigated. A compact approximate model is …

Microchannel heat sinks (MCHS) can be made with channels of various shapes. Their size
and shape may have remarkable influence on the thermal and hydrodynamic performance …
