Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow in Minichannels and Microchannels

by Satish Kandlikar, Srinivas Garimella, Dongqing Li

Heat exchangers with minichannel and microchannel flow passages are becoming increasingly popular because of their ability to remove large heat fluxes under single-phase and two-phase applications. This book serves as a sourcebook for those individuals involved in the design processes of microchannel flow passages in a heat exchanger. Each chapter is accompanied by a real life' case study.New edition of the first book published solely dealing with heat and fluid flow in minichannels and microchannels.Presents its findings in a manner that is directly useful to a designer, while a researcher is able to use the information in developing new models, or in identifying research needs.
