Non-Toxic, Non- Aqueous GNP+SiC/PG Hybrid Nanofluid for High-Temperature Oblique Microchannel Cooling: A CFD Based Parametric Study
Abstract
Effective thermal management in miniaturized electronics necessitates advanced coolants. This computational study systematically evaluates the thermo-hydraulic characteristics of a Graphene Nanoplatelet-Silicon Carbide (GNP+SiC) hybrid nanofluid dispersed in propylene glycol (PG), a less-toxic base fluid with potential for high-temperature applications. The investigation focuses on fluid flow within a microchannel incorporating triangular oblique elements designed for enhanced convective heat transfer.
