Abstract


The micro channel heat sink (MCHS) is the most widely used heat sink. It is continuously studied by different researchers and companies who improve the effectiveness and efficiency with which it removes heat from devices. This review paper focuses on two-phase flow in MCHS and includes the mathematical and numerical analysis of the two-phase flow in MCHS. It also provides an overview of the types of MCHS with respect to the arrangement of the fins. These types include rectangular, circular, and other types of MCHS. It includes some applications in which the MCHS is preferably used. In addition to these applications of the MCHS, this review paper includes a brief explanation of the fluids used in the MCHS to increase its effectiveness.
