    Experimental Investigation on Heat Spreader Integrated Microchannel Using Graphene Oxide Nanofluid
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd. michael.wagreich@univie.ac.at, 2020) Narendran, G.; Gnanasekaran, N.; Arumuga Perumal, D.A.
    Thermal design consideration is highly essential for efficient heat dissipation in advanced microprocessors which are subjected to conjugate heat transfer under high heat flux with a minimal area for cooling. Generally, these multicore processors develop a localized high density heat flux referred to as hotspot. The effective use of microchannel in order to mitigate the hotspot is found in literature; however, the flow induced hotspot still exist due to maldistribution of flow inside the microchannel. Henceforth, the present study provides an experimental insight on laminar forced convection in a parallel microchannel heat sink accompanied with 1.2 mm thin copper heat spreader with a surface area of 30 mm2 to effectively migrate the maldistribution flow induced hot spot. The present experimental study provides a profound insight about the hotspot and migration of hotspot to safe zones; as a result, not only the performance of the multi core microprocessor is highly improved but also the reliability of neighboring components is well secured. © 2019, © 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

    Conjugate heat transfer study comprising the effect of thermal conductivity and irreversibility in a pipe filled with metallic foams
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Jadhav, P.H.; Gnanasekaran, N.; Arumuga Perumal, D.A.
    A parametric study is proposed in this paper to examine heat dissipation rate and entropy generation of a forced convection in a horizontal pipe which is filled with high porous metallic foams. The study quantifies the effect of thermal conductivity and pore density on entropy generation when the pipe is fully filled with copper, aluminium and nickel metallic foams of 0.6 m length in the fluid flow direction. To predict fluid flow and heat transfer features through these metallic foams the Darcy-extended Forchheimer (DEF) flow and the local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) models are employed. The characteristics of laminar, transition and turbulent in the non-foam region of the pipe are captured by considering the appropriate flow models. To affirm the methodology adopted in this work, the results of the present numerical solutions are validated with the available experimental results reported in the literature. Colburn j factor and thermal performance factor are the important factors that decide the performance and efficiency of any heat exchange device. Hence, these parameters are critically evaluated and are observed to increase with increasing pore densities of the metal foams and decrease with increasing flow rates of the fluid. Furthermore, the numerical analysis is extended to obtain the results of wall temperature, Nusselt number, heat transfer enhancement ratio, frictional irreversibility and Bejan number. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
