Abstract Photovoltaic-thermal (PV/T) technology, combines the benefits of both solar
photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal systems into a single integrated solution. It is a …

A cooling technology like phase change material has been recognised as a promising
approach due to its sustainable life span and high latent heat without any need of pumping …

Heat sinks are important for efficient heat dissipation in electronic devices. Continuous heat
dissipation is of utmost importance to keep the electronic devices below the maximum …

In the present work, a new fin shape is proposed to improve the convective heat transfer in
heat sinks and to reduce their weight. The problem under consideration is a natural …

This paper presents an experimental and numerical study of forced convection heat transfer
from straight rectangular fins on a horizontal surface at low Reynolds numbers ranging from …

The increase in module operating temperature above 25° C can be detrimental to the
electrical output performance of photovoltaic (PV) modules. The study introduces a novel …

Tubular heat exchangers for natural convection can be found in many industrial
applications. In order to develop the high-efficiency natural convection radiator, the heat …

A novel notched fin heat sink with a central opening is proposed in the present study to
augment the heat transfer performance of the natural convection heat sink under horizontal …

This work is an extensive numerical study of the heat dissipation and cooling of a heat-
generating vertical base using corrugated fins. The overall objective is to improve the heat …

The rectangular heat sinks with non-uniform height thermosyphons are proposed for high
power light emitting diode (LED) lamps cooling in this study. The combined thermal …
