Abstract





Excessive heating
of electronic equipments may cause both decreasing thermal performance of
system and undesirable consequences such as increased thermal stresses and
mechanical defects in the system. In the literature, there are many studies
including applications of thermal analysis and technologies in order to make
cooling more effective. In this study, flow and heat transfer are
investigated numerically in the case of three dimensional, incompressible,
fully developed and laminar flow for semi spheres placed as multiple serials
in a channel. The continuity, Navier-Stokes and energy equations are solved
numerically by using  Ansys Fluent-17.0
software program. Air is taken as working fluid. Inlet temperature of the air
and sphere surface temperatures are 300 K and 350 K, respectively. The
effects of location of semi spheres as multiple serials, placement angle and
positions of sphres according to each other on the pressure drop and heat
transfer enhancement for case of different Re numbers (Re=100, 200, 400 ve
800) are researched. The obtained results show that the positions of spheres
have a great importance in the case of placement as multiple serials of semi
spheres.
