Selected Papers
15Abstract Since the pioneering introduction of the microchannel heat sink by Tuckerman and Pease [Citation1], many investigators have studied heat transfer phenomena within these heat sinks. Their efforts have been aimed at presenting an optimized structure for the microchannel heat sink. This paper presents three optimization methods by which the thermal resistance of the microchannel heat sink can be minimized: the fin model, the porous medium model, and the numerical optimization method.
