Résumé

The paper is devoted to modelling methods for thermal analysis of microchannel heat sinks. The averaging approach presented in earlier works for the case of constant surface heat flux is extended to the problems subject to the uniform wall temperature condition. The solutions for velocity and temperature distributions are obtained by solving one-dimensional averaged governing equations without resorting to a two-dimensional direct numerical simulation. General solutions for both high-aspect-ratio and low-aspect-ratio microchannel heat sinks are presented. Asymptotic solutions in high-aspect-ratio and low-aspect-ratio limits are also given in explicit form. The solutions presented in the paper are validated by comparing them with the results of direct numerical simulation. The friction factors, Nusselt numbers and thermal resistances for microchannel heat sinks with a uniform base temperature are obtained from the presented solutions. The effects of the aspect ratio and the porosity on the friction factor and the Nusselt number are presented. Finally, characteristics of the thermal resistance of the microchannel heat sink are discussed. [Reprinted with permission from Elsevier. Copyright, 2005].
