Numerical study of the fluid dynamics and heat transfer for shear-thinning nanofluids in a micro pin-fin heat sink
The ability to enhance heat transfer rates of shear-thinning fluids in microchannel devices is evaluated numerically for steady and time-dependent flows in the range of 400 < Re < 2000. The geometry used represents a simplified micro pin-fin heat sink device with a staggered circular pin arran...
