Quantitative characterization of triangular leakage flow in a shell-and-tube heat exchanger with Y-shaped helical baffles

Triangular leakage flow near adjacent baffle junctions is a typical bypass-flow problem in discontinuous helical baffle shell-and-tube heat exchangers, which weakens transverse disturbance and local heat transfer. However, existing evaluations still rely largely on qualitative fl...

Bio-inspired fish-like micropins for enhancing the thermo-hydraulic performance of wavy microchannel heat sinks for IGBT cooling

Efficient liquid cooling is essential for high-power insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules in new energy vehicles. This study proposes a wavy microchannel heat sink with bio-inspired fish-like micropins (SWP-FS) to improve the heat transfer-flow resistance trade-off. C...
