- Summary:
- The substantial growth of power converters in electric vehicles necessitates more energy consumption and, as a result, greater heat generation. To avoid the power converter's excessive heat, an innovative curved microchannel with diamond-shaped and pentagonal cross-sections was developed. The flow and heat transfer characteristics of the Gc3N4/Water (0.3%), Al2O3/Water (0.3%), and Al2O3-Gc3N4/Water (0.3%) hybrid nanofluid were assessed. The experimental investigation was carried out by different mass flow rates of about 0.1 to 0.5 LPM under a uniform heat flux of 50 kW/m2. The heat sink had a cross-sectional area of 8048mm2. In comparison to the diamond channel heat sink through hybrid nanofluids, findings from experiments resulted that the heat transfer rate and pressure drop for the diamond channel enhanced by 14.2% and 18.9%, respectively. In comparison to Gc3N4/Water and Al2O3/Water nanofluids, the hybrid nanofluid improved the heat transfer rate for the diamond micro channel heat sink (MCHS) by 4.9% and 5.8%, respectively. Finally the hybrid MCHS with hybrid no fluid revealed better performance
