TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical formula is proposed to calculate the optimal evaporation temperature (OET) of subcritical ORC (organic Rankine cycle) based on thermodynamic theory when the net power output is selected as the objective function.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied liquid crystal thermography to the study of heat transfer from a rectangular channel (width-to-height ratio equal to five) having one surface heated at uniform heat flux and roughened by repeated ribs.

09 Mar 1988TL;DR: A microchannel heat sink as discussed by the authors is used to cool a high power electronic device such as an integrated circuit comprising a plurality of channels in close thermal contact to the integrated circuit and through which a liquid is passed to create either a developing laminar flow or a turbulent flow.
Abstract: A microchannel heat sink used to cool a high power electronic device such as an integrated circuit comprising a plurality of channels in close thermal contact to the integrated circuit and through which a liquid is passed to create either a developing laminar flow or a turbulent flow. The turbulent flow may be either developing or fully developed. The heat sink features a compensation heater surrounding the integrated circuit and heated at the same rate as the integrated circuit to thereby provide a more uniform temperature at the perimeter of the integrated circuit.
