Numerical investigation on heat transfer and flow mechanism in microchannel heat sink having V shape ribs by Naushad Ali, Injamamul Haque, Tabish Alam, Tauseef Uddin Siddiqui, Mushtaq Ahmad Ansari, Jagmohan Yadav, Shivam Srivastava, Erdem Cuce, Intesaaf Ashraf, Dan Dobrotă

“…Importantly, this study also underscores the dual effect of rib angle on flow dynamics, as diminished angles elevate friction factor (f), necessitating increased energy input for fluid movement—friction factor at a Reynolds number of 300 were recorded at 0.0465 for 35° and 0.0288 for 90°, thereby validating the compromise between heat transfer and flow resistance. This research offers a novel perspective that while elevated rib angles (approaching 90°) mitigate hydraulic resistance, they concurrently reduce the enhancement of heat transfer, thereby accentuating the necessity for an optimized rib angle to achieve equilibrium between thermal and hydraulic performance.…”
