Abstract

In this work, we have studied numerically the influence of the nature of nanofluids and the obstacle position, within the mini-channel of dimensions (10 x 10 x 108 mm3) on the electronic component cooling. The power of the electronic component is constant. In these simulations we have considered the Al2O3-water, SiO2-water and TiO2-water as coolants. The numerical results are obtained by choosing a Reynolds number (Re) between 300 and 500 and considering that the flow regime is stationary. The simulation was performed using the software, ANSYS FLUENT.The analysis of the simulation results shows that the position of obstacles within the mini-channel has considerable effects on the improvement of the electronic component temperature. The results also showed that among the nanofluids studied, the liquid containing nanoparticles Al2O3-water is the best for the electronic component cooling.
