An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of inclined angles of channel on thermal stability of electronic components. In this study, it is focused on the natural convection heat transfer from an inclined parallel channel with discrete protruding heat sources. The material used for the inclined parallel channel was epoxy-resin, while air as the cooling fluid. Heat transfer phenomena for inclined angles of $\psi$=$15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$ and for the range of $9.52{\times}10^5/ were analyzed. The thermal fields in the channel were visualized by Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Also, local temperatures were measured by thermocouples along the channel wall and heat sources surface. As a result, for the range of $4.29{\times} 10^5/, a useful correlation of mean Nusselt number was proposed as a function of modified channel Rayleigh number.

The characteristics of conjugated heat transfer in the inclined channel was experimentally investigated. The simulated module is attached to the bottom of the inclined channel and is heated with constant heat flux. The experimental parameters of this study are input power (Q = 3, 7W), inlet air velocity ($V_{i}=0.1{\sim}0.9m/s$) and inclined channel angle (${\varphi}=0{\sim}90^{\circ}$). The results show that input power was most effective parameter on the temperature differences between module and air. As the inclined channel angle increases, the temperatures of the module are increased. And we obtained the best condition on the conductive board when ${\varphi}=0^{\circ}$.

An experimental study was carried out on the characteristics of the mixed-convection heat transfer from a protruding heat source module which had uniform heat flux and was located on a flat plate in the inclined channel. The effects of the inclined channel(${\varphi}=0{\sim}90^{\circ}$) was studied for the input power($Q=3,\;7W$) and inlet air velocities($V_{i}=0.1{\sim}0.9m/s$). Experimental results indicate that the input power was most effective parameter on the temperature differences between inlet air and module. The effects of the inclined angle was negligible when the inlet velocities were above 0.5m/s and 0.9m/s at Q = 3W, 7W respectively. As the inclined angle of the channel increases, the temperatures of the module are decreased. So we obtained the best condition on the adiabatic board at the vertical channel.

The objective of the present work is to examine the effect of inclined angle of channel with multi heat source on thermal stability of electronic equipment. The heat sources are mounted on both sides of channel walls by two kinds of configuration such as the zig-zag md symmetric on. Conductive heat transfer was estimated by using of thermocouples and heat flux sensor. Thus, convective heat transfer and mean Nusselt number could be obtained. With increased inclined angle, the convective heat transfer coefficient was decreased. When inclined angle was smaller than 30 degree, The average Nusselt number of Big-zag configuration was larger than that of symmetric. Furthermore, when protruding ration was 0.082, the temperature was strongly affected by inclined angle. whereas, when protruding ration was 0.25, the temperature was strongly affected by heat source configuration.

The local heat transfer and pressure drop of developed turbulent flows in the smooth convergent/divergent channels with rectangular and square cross-sectional areas along the axial distance have been investigated experimentally. The measurement was conducted within the range of Reynolds numbers from 15,000 to 89,000. The channel hydraulic diameter ratios of 0.67 and 1.49 in the rectangular channel with 2 inclined walls and the ratios 0.75 and 1.33 in the square channel with 4 inclined walls are considered. The comparison showed that among the four channels the square divergent channel has the highest thermal performance at the identical mass flow rate, at the identical pumping power, and at the static pressure drop.

A numerical study has been carried out to investigate heat transfer enhancement in channel flow using large-scale vortices. A square cylinder, inclined with respect to the main flow direction, is located at the center of the channel flow, generating a separation region and Karman vortices. Two cases are considered; one with a fixed blockage ratio and the other one with a fixed cylinder size. In both cases, the flow characteristics downstream of the cylinder significantly change depending on the inclination angle. As a result, heat transfer from channel wall is significantly enhanced due to increased vertical-velocity fluctuations induced by the large-scale vortices shed from the cylinder. Quantitative results as well as qualitative physical explanation are presented to justify the effectiveness of the inclined square cylinder as a vortex generator to enhance heat transfer from channel wall.

This experimental study investigates the local heat transfer enhancement characteristics and the associated frictional head loss in the rectangular channel with a single inclined baffle. Four different types of the baffle are used. The inclined baffles have the width of 19.8 cm, the square diamond of $2.55cm{\times}2.55cm$, and the inclination angle of 5o, and number of holes of up to 9. Reynolds number is varied between 23,000 and 57,000. Results show that the heat transfer and friction factor depend significantly on the number of baffle holes and Reynolds number. The friction factor decreases with increasing Reynolds number and the number of holes on the baffle. It is found that the heat transfer performance of baffle type II(3 hole baffle) has the best values.

The effects of the inclined perforated baffles on the distributions of the local heat transfer coefficients and friction factors for air flows in a rectangular channel were determined for Reynolds numbers from 23,000 to 57,000. Four different types of the baffle are used. The inclined baffles have the width of 19.8cm, the square diamond type hole having one side length of 2.55cm, and the inclination angle of $5^{\circ}$, whereas the corresponding channel width-to-height ratio was 4.95. Results show that the heat transfer and friction factor depend significantly on the number of baffle holes and Reynolds number. The friction factor decreases with increasing Reynolds number and the number of holes on the baffle, and the heat transfer performance of baffle type II (3 hole baffle) has the best value.

This paper deals with a parametric study on inclined elliptical dimples to enhance heat transfer in a channel. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Naiver-Stokes equations are solved to estimate flow and heat transfer in dimpled channel. As turbulence closure, the low-Re shear stress transport model is employed. Two non-dimensional geometric variables, dimple ellipse diameter ratio and angle of main diameter to flow direction are selected for the parametric study. The inclined elliptical dimples show higher heat-transfer performance but with higher pressure drop compared to the circular dimples. And there is an optimum inclination angle that gives the maximum heat transfer.

The interfacial shear stress is experimentally investigated for co-current air-water stratified flow in inclined rectangular channels having a length of 1854mm, width of 120mm and height of 40mm at almost atmospheric pressure. Experiments are carried out in several inclinations from $0^{\circ}\;up\;to\;10^{\circ}$. The local film thickness and the wave height are measured at three locations, i.e., L/H = 8,23, and 40. According to the inclination angle, the experimental data are categorized into two groups; nearly horizontal data group ($0^{\circ}\;{\leq}\;{\theta}\;{\leq}\;0.7^{\circ}$), and inclined channel data group ($0.7^{\circ}\;{\leq}\;{\theta}\;{\leq}\;10^{\circ}$). Experimental observations for nearly horizontal data group show that the flow is not fully developed due to the water level gradient and the hydraulic jump within the channel. For the inclined channel data group, a dimensionless wave height, $\Delta$h/h, is empirically correlated in terms of $Re_{G}$ and h/H. A modified root-mean-square wave height is proposed to consider the effects of the interfacial and wave propagation velocities. It is found that an equivalent roughness has a linear relationship with the modified root-mean-square wave height and its relationship is independent of the inclination.
