EULERIAN TWO-PHASE MODEL ANALYSIS ON JET IMPINGEMENT NANOFLUIDS HEAT TRANSFER IN HEAT SINKS

摘要

A numerical analysis of an Eulerian two-phase approach model on a confined jet impingement has been carried out to evaluate the thermal and fluid flow characteristics of nanofluids in the mini-channel heat sink. The nanofluids mixture of de-ionized water and nanoscale TiO_2 particles with the nanoparticles concentration of 0.2% by volume is used as working fluid. The results obtained from the Eulerian two-phase approach model are verified with the published experimental data and compared with three different approach models. The predicted results are reasonable agreement with the published experimental data.
