Abstract

The usage of porous media along with jet impinging technique is one of the efficient ways of cooling electronic equipments such as insulated gate bi-polar transistors. Analysis of porous filled heat exchanger is carried out in both stream and span wise directions by varying porous material (copper, aluminium and boron arsenide), porosity of the media, inlet jet cross section (square, circle and ellipse) at constant discharge of the heat exchanger and fluids of different heat capacity (water, liquid-ammonia and HFE-7100) for better heat removal at constant Reynolds number (laminar). Usage of elliptical inlet jet cross section for the heat exchanger, Boron Arsenide as porous material, porosity of 0.45 with water as cooling fluid dominates over square inlet jet cross section by 6% and almost nearer results around 1% higher for circular inlet jet cross section in effective cooling.
