    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) rapidly evolves and expands into new industries dueto its great design freedom and time savings. Injection molding is an excellentindustry where AM can help reduce cooling time by printing complex coolingchannels for more effective and uniform cooling. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigation of the heat transfer of enhanced additively manufactured minichannel heat exchangers

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Hamidreza Rastan; [2019]
    Keywords : Minichannel; Microchannel; Heat exchanger; Additive manufacturing; 3D printing; Numerical simulation; CFD; Comsol;

    Abstract : Mini-/microchannel components have received attention over the past few decades owing to their compactness and superior thermal performance. Microchannel heat sinks are typically manufactured through traditional manufacturing practices (milling and sawing, electrodischarge machining, and water jet cutting) by changing their components to work in microscale environments or microfabrication techniques (etching and lost wax molding), which have emerged from the semiconductor industry.

    Abstract : In view of the fact that most of the synthetic refrigerants, in case of leakage or release, are harmful to the environment by contributing in global warming or depleting stratospheric ozone layer, many research works have been done recently to find alternative refrigerants posing no or negligible threat to the environment. Among alternative refrigerants, ammonia, a natural refrigerant with zero Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP), can be a sensible choice. READ MORE
