Thermally Developing Flow and Heat Transfer in Rectangular Microchannels of Different Aspect Ratios

TL;DR: In this paper, three-dimensional numerical simulations were performed for laminar thermally developing flow in microchannels of different aspect ratios, based on the temperature and heat flux distributions obtained, both the local and average Nusselt numbers were presented graphically as a function of the dimensionless axial distance and channel aspect ratio.

Laminar mixing, heat transfer and pressure drop in tree-like microchannel nets and their application for thermal management in polymer electrolyte fuel cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the laminar convective heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics in tree-like microchannel nets are numerically investigated and compared to the corresponding characteristics in traditional serpentine flow patterns, by solving the Navier-Stokes and energy equation for an incompressible fluid with constant properties in three dimensions.

Laminar Flow Forced Convection Heat Transfer and Flow Friction in Straight and Curved Ducts - A Summary of Analytical Solutions

TL;DR: Theoretical laminar flow solutions for heat transfer and flow friction are of importance in the development of compact heat exchangers as discussed by the authors, generally the higher the degree of compactness, the lower is the Reynolds number and the greater is the relevance of the theory solutions.
