文摘
- •
A microchannel heat sink was designed via entropy generation minimisation.
- •
Colloids show a good choice of coolant for designs with lower volume flow rates.
- •
Three different modern optimisation algorithms were implemented.
- •
Heat sink manufactured from a High Thermal Conductive Graphite was considered.
- •
A colloid of H2O–TiO2 was used as working fluid with several volume fraction values.
