A Unit-Cell Shape Optimization Approach for Maximizing Heat Transfer in Periodic Fin Arrays at Constant Solid Temperature

Maarten Blommaert, Arthur Vangeffelen, Mehmet Basaran +2

Periodic fin structures are often employed to enhance heat transfer in compact cooling solutions and heat exchangers. Adjoint-based optimization methods are able to further increas…

Developed and quasi-developed macro-scale heat transfer in micro- and mini-channels with arrays of offset strip fins subject to a uniform heat flux

Arthur Vangeffelen, Geert Buckinx, Carlo De Servi +2

In the present work, we examine to what degree the heat transfer can be described as developed on a macro-scale level in typical micro- and mini-channels with offset strip fin arra…

A macro-scale description of quasi-periodically-developed flow

Geert Buckinx

We present a macro-scale description of quasi-periodically developed flow in channels, which relies on double volume-averaging. We show that quasi-developed macro-scale flow is cha…

Friction factor for steady periodically developed flow in micro-and mini-channels with arrays of offset strip fins

Arthur Vangeffelen, Geert Buckinx, Maria Rosaria Vetrano +1

In this work, the friction factor for steady periodically developed flow through micro-and mini-channels with periodic arrays of offset strip fins is analyzed. The friction factor…
