Abstract: Accurate knowledge of the heat flux characteristics provided by optical heat sources of long heating time nondestructive infrared thermography techniques is essential to determine the adequate application of such techniques; ...

Abstract: An improved method for heat transfer calculations inside rough tubes is provided. The model has been obtained from a second assessment developed early by the authors on fluid flow in single-phase inside rough tubes. The ...

Abstract: This work is a numerical study of microfluidic cooling of integrated circuits (ICs), using embedded micropin-fins on a silicon chip. The study considers non-uniform chip heat fluxes (250–500 W/cm2) and variable pin fin ...
