... microchannel heat sinks used in electronics cooling applications. A key hydrodynamic consideration of flow boiling in parallel microchannels is the tendency of the flow to distribute unevenly between the channels. Such flow maldistribution is undesirable in heat sinks as the channels starved of flow...

...-power density servers. The two-phase flow boiling heat transfer technique is widely believed to address the heating problem posed by HPC racks. In this study, a novel liquid-cooled cold plate containing microchannel and jet impingement arrangement was characterized for its two-phase flow and thermal...

... with significantly lower pressure drops. cooling 3D IC review single-phase cooling electronics cooling flow boiling microchannels A 3D IC architecture incorporates multiple device layers that are interconnected through vertical interconnects to extend the performance of a 2D chip. A high level...

... of these tools is complicated by a lack of reliable databases and the drastic differences in boiling behavior of different fluids in small passages. For example, flow boiling of certain fluids in very small diameter channels may be no different than in macrochannels. Conversely, other fluids may exhibit...
