Funded Activity Summary

The Enhancement of heat transfer in microchannels by microelectomechanical devices. A perennial and extremely important problem in computer chip technology is the provision of adequate cooling. This project is a rare combination of multi-disciplinary activities which will lead to new knowledge in a number of poorly explored areas in heat transfer, whilst at the same time permitting the development of the necessary theoretical and practical fabrication skills for the manufacture of a realistic cooling micro devices. The main goal of this project is therefore to design, manufacture and test a very efficient micro-channel cooling device equipped with a micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) synthetic jet generator.
