The hydrodynamics and thermal behaviors of the flow in micro-heat exchanger parallel-plate are investigated numerically. The model that combines both the continuum approach and the possibility of slip at the boundary is adopted in the study. Effects of different parameters, such as, Knudsen number (Kn), heat capacity ratio (Cr), the effectiveness (e) and number of transfer units (NTU) are investigated. It is found that both the velocity slip and the temperature jump at the walls increase with increasing Kn. On the other hand, at low values of Kn, the NTU increases with increasing Cr, but at high values of Kn the NTU decreases with increasing Cr. With regard to the effect of Cr on e, it is found that increasing Cr leads to a reduction in e and for all Kn.
