Abstract
The effect of varying thermal properties and boundary heat transfer coefficients on temperature profiles inside cylindrical quench probes was simulated during immersion cooling. The results of simulation indicated that, for assessment of the cooling performance of the quench media, the ratio of the quench probe diameter to its thermal conductivity should be less than 0.0005 m2K/W. A simple dimensionless cooling parameter (D 2CR/??T) was proposed to assess the cooling performance of quench media. 2013 The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society and ASM International.
