Impact of Channels Aspect Ratio on the Heat Transfer in Finned Heat Sinks with Tip Clearance

A 3D numerical study is used to analyze the flow topology and performance, in terms of heat transfer efficiency and required pumping power, of heat sink devices with different channel aspect-ratio in the presence of tip-clearance. Seven different channel aspect ratios <inline-formula><math...
