Abstract:The usage of porous media is one of the effective ways to augment the heat transfer in micro-to-mini scale channels due to its enormously high surface area, enhanced thermophysical properties, and dispersion effect to transfer the thermal energy between the heated channel wall and fluid at a faster rate. However, there is ambiguity associated with the extent of thermal equilibrium between the solid and fluid phases, and therefore, also in the selection of suitable heat transfer model. In the current study… Show more
