Abstract

Copper heatsinks with different microchannel orientations are numerically analyzed for their performance in this work. The performance of the heat sink is presented in terms of heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number. Initially, a heat sink with straight microchannels is compared for its performance numerically and experimentally. The numerical analysis is carried out using FLUIDYN multiphysics software. Further, the heat sinks having the straight, rectangular, semicircular and triangular orientation of the microchannels are analyzed. The fluid inlet velocity is varied in the range of 0.75 m/s to 1.5 m/s in steps of 0.25 m/s during the analysis. The heat sink with triangular microchannel orientation is observed to perform better than other orientations.
