This study aims to investigate Microchannel Heat Sinks with side wall fins through a model-based approach. The primary objective of the project is to design and analyze the thermal performance of straight Microchannel Heat Sinks with square and triangle-shaped fins on sidewalls. To examine their performance, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation study is conducted using the ANSYS Fluent software. The study starts by creating a CAD model of the heat sink and then analyzing its thermal properties with the ANSYS Fluent software. From the CFD simulation study, numerical results are obtained for different operational and geometrical conditions. The study employed the Figure of Merit (FOM) approach to balance the advantages of thermal enhancement with the drawbacks of increased pressure drop. The study demonstrates that incorporating square or triangle-shaped fins enhances thermal performance, but at the cost of increased pressure drop. Moreover, increasing the size of the fins lowers thermal resistance; however, Design 1, which features smaller fins, yields a higher Figure of Merit (FOM) for both designs. Furthermore, reducing the spacing between the fins lowers thermal resistance, but Design 4, which has larger spacing than Design 5, yields a higher FOM in both designs. Additionally, smaller channel sizes reduce thermal resistance, but Design 6 with larger size than Design 7 offers higher FOM in both designs. The study also indicates that reducing the spacing between channels results in higher FOM values in both designs. Importantly, square-shaped fin microchannels consistently outperformed triangle fin microchannels in all cases. These results highlight the importance of achieving a balance between thermal performance and Pumping Power in heat sink design.
