Improving Heat Transfer of Plate-Fin Heat Sinks Using through Rod Configurations
The performance of the heat sink has been investigated as using rods through its fins. The shear-stress transport k-� model is selected to carry out this study. Two different flow directions have been studied. Four cases are represented, including the baseline case which has no rods through the fin...
