  • As the electronic industry rapidly develops, the heat flux from state-of-the-art electronics increases up to $10^6\;W/m^2$. For this reason, the development of a new cooling technology for high heat flux applications is strongly required. Recently, some cooling technologies using boiling and condensation of working fluid are being adopted to overcome such a technical barrier. In the present study, a smooth boiling surface ($14{\times}14\;mm^2$) was immersed in FC-72 and its vapor was condensed by four different types of condensation surfaces ($30{\times}30\;mm^2$ base). The condensing surfaces were composed of a smooth surface and $1{\times}1\;mm^2$ pin-finned surfaces of 2 mm height with 0.3, 0.5 and 1 mm array spacing. Boiling and condensing characteristics were investigated in detail on their combinations of boiling and condensing surfaces. For a smooth boiling surface the results obtained showed that the pin-finned condensing surface with 1 mm array spacing yielded the best performance and the smooth condensation surface did the worst. Furthermore hysteresis phenomena could be reduced by using enhanced condensing surfaces.

  • An experiment was carried out to study the condensation heat transfer enhancement of horizontal circular cylinders with varying outside surface configurations. The refrigerant used is Freon-22 and the test condensing temperature is 34.1C. Pin-finned tube shows about 2.5-3.5 times higher overall heat transfer coefficient compared to that of smooth surface tube, thus has larger encomic benifit for condenser design. The condensation heat transfer coefficient was shown to increase as the fin-pitch of the pin-finned tube decreases for film Reynolds number larger than 100.

  • In this study, the effect of thermal contact resistance between pin-channel tubes on the heat transfer characteristics was analytically examined around the channel tubes with the pins attached to two consecutive arranged channel pipes. The numerical results showed that the heat transfer coefficient decreased geometrically as the thermal contact resistance increased, and the corresponding temperature change on the contact surface increased as the thermal contact resistance increased. The thinner the pin, the more pronounced the geometric drop in the heat transfer coefficient. It was confirmed that the higher the height of the pin, the higher was the heat transfer coefficient, however, the greater the size of the thermal contact resistance, the smaller was the heat transfer coefficient. It was found that the temperature change in the inner wall of the channel tube did not significantly affect the heat transfer characteristics owing to the thermal contact resistance. Furthermore, the velocity of air at the entrance of the channel tube was proportional to the heat transfer coefficient due to a decrease in the convective heat resistance corresponding to an increase in the flow rate.

  • It was investigated thermal performances on two array types of a serial circulation and a two-way parallel circulation for six water-cooled cold plates covered with non-metallic material (polycarbonate, PC) to reduce weight of the cooling devices for humanoid robot cooling. Six cold plates attached on $10{\times}10\;mm^2$ copper base : $0.5{\times}0.5\;mm^2$ pin-finned surfaces of 1.5 mm high with 0.5 mm array spacing, was mounted on six copper heating blocks with isothermal conditions of $50{\sim}90^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to compare thermal characteristics according to two circulation types, the surface temperatures of heating blocks and the cooling water temperatures at inlets and outlets of cold plates were measured. From the results, it was found that a two-way parallel circulation was better performance than a serial circulation in terms of total thermal resistance, total heat transfer rate, and surface temperature rises from $1^{st}$ heating block to last one for six multiple cold plates.
