The studies of bionics reveal that some aquatic animals and winged insects have developed
an unsmoothed surface possessing good characteristics of drag reduction. In this paper, four …

In order to strengthen flow and heat transfer performance of the smooth rectangular
microchannel (SRM), a novel of bionic rectangular microchannel (BRM) with a hydraulic …

In this study, to solve the problems of high temperature in the region near the outlet of
microchannel and the difficulty in manufacturing complex ribs, three concise rib …

The biological surface structure comprising fish scales and a mucous membrane exhibits
good turbulent drag reduction ability. Based on this structure, a bionic frictional drag …

To enhance the cooling capacity of traditional microchannels for high heat flux electronic
devices, a microchannel design with staggered semi-elliptical ribs is proposed in this paper …

This second part of a three-part study concerns pressure drop of laminar flow in
microchannel heat sinks with water and silicon used as fluid and solid for the computational …

Flow characteristics and heat transfer performances in a rectangular microchannel with
dimples/protrusions are studied numerically in this research. The height and the width of the …

Numerical analysis of fluid flow and heat transfer in a trapezoidal microchannel was done
using finite volume method for the range of Reynolds number 96 to 720. Three-dimensional …

We study drag reduction of a uniform flow over a flat surface due to a series of rectangular
microgrooves created on the surface. The results reveal that making grooves on the surface …

With the development of science and technology, energy consumption and demand
continue to increase, and energy conservation and consumption reduction have become the …
