Abstract
This paper reports conjugate heat transfer studies in micro channel heat sink of 3 cm2 which acts as a sink for the heat generating material. The hexagonal micro channel is modeled with surface roughness to counter the manufacturing outcomes. Different combinations of Nano fluids such as ethylene glycol, isopropyl alcohol and de-ionized water are proposed in the numerical study and the maximum heat dissipation is obtained. Simulations are also carried out for various heat flux and different velocities of the fluids. The conjugate heat transfer model is helpful as a forward model in the field of inverse heat transfer wherein the unknown heat flux is estimated by either deterministic or stochastic models.
