Numerical Investigation of Flow and Heat Transfer in Rectangular Microchannels with and without Semi-Elliptical Protrusions

Micro-cooling is a growing trend in the field of turbine blade cooling. Technical difficulties in the experiments of large-aspect-ratio rectangular microchannels that are commonly used in the turbine blades cause the rareness of related literature. In this study, the flow characteristics and heat tr...
