Heat exchangers embedded with metal foam are drawing increasing attention in the thermal
application field, due to the performance of low density, large ratio of surface area to volume …

This paper examines numerically the heat transfer enhancement in a pipe partially filled with
a porous medium under local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) condition. The flow inside the …

Open cell metal foam can be applied to greatly improve thermal performance of heat sink
and heat exchanger, so that it has been widely used in the fields of thermal (or heat) control …

This paper investigates the combined effects of using nanofluid, a porous insert and
corrugated walls on heat transfer, pressure drop and entropy generation inside a heat …

In this paper, a new optimization method coupling genetic algorithm (GA) and computational
fluid dynamics (CFD) based on Windows Socket was found to optimize the configurations of …

This study investigates methods to improve heat transfer in electronic devices through forced
convective cooling. Adequate energy dissipation from tiny elements on electronic boards is …

Forced convection through a channel partially filled with a porous medium is investigated
