Abstract
In this study the optimization of plate-fin type heat sink for the thermal stability is peformed numerically. The optimum design variables are obtained when the temperature rise and the pressure drop are minimized simultaneously. The flow and thermal fields are predicted using the finite volume method and the optimization is carried out by using the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method which is widely used in the constrained non-linear optimization problem. The results show that when the temperature rise is less than 34.6K, the optimal design variables are as follows; B$_1$=2.468mm, B$_2$=1.365mm, and t=10.962mm. The Pareto optimal solutions are also presented for the pressure drop and the temperature rise.
