TL;DR: In this paper, the oblique-finned micro-channel heat sink was tested in two-phase mode and the results showed that nucleate boiling is the dominant heat transfer mechanism at low heat fluxes, with a transition to convective boiling-dominant via thin-film evaporation occurring at medium heat flow fluxes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared straight-finned and oblique finned microchannels with similar channel dimensions and operating conditions using the FC-72 dielectric fluid.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted flow boiling experiments in oblique-finned microchannels with different oblique angles to investigate its effects on two-phase heat transfer, pressure drop and instabilities.

TL;DR: In this paper, flow boiling experiments are conducted in oblique-finned microchannels using the FC-72 dielectric fluid with varying secondary channel widths to investigate its effects on two-phase heat transfer, pressure drop and flow boiling instabilities.

TL;DR: In this article, the oblique cuts are created at a nominal oblique angle of 10° with a nominal width which is half of that of the parallel microchannels, and two mass fluxes at 175 kg/m 2 s and 370 kg/ m 2 s, with heat fluxes from 14 W/cm 2 to 42 W/ cm 2, were tested.
