▎ 摘  要

This study reports an experimental work to examine the angle effect of pin fin heat sink channel in terms of convective heat transfer coefficient, log mean temperature difference and thermal resistance using water based graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) nanofluids in a flow rate range of 0.25-0.75 LPM. Three heat sinks having channel angles, measured from positive x-axis, 22.5 degree, 45 degree and 90 degree are used. The volumetric concentration of GNPs particles is 9.5% and these particles consist of overlapped two-dimensional graphene layers. All heat sinks are fabricated with copper substrate, which is maintained at uniform heat flux during experimentation. Heat sink with 22.5 degree channel angle shows better thermal performance as compared to other tested heat sinks. For the same flow rate, 22.5 degree heat sink shows lowest convective thermal resistance as compared to other tested heat sinks. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
