Team 12 - ITherm Heat Sink Design Competition

The University of Utah Department of Mechanical Engineering hosts Design Day in Spring and Fall semester to showcase cutting-edge projects developed by senior students. This is a group presentation. More details are available at www.mech.utah....

Nice work guys

The best heat sink should have the largest surface area, like a sponge or metal sieve with nanocospic holes (100nn) or smaller to dissipate heat better!

That doesn't work as well as expected due it being non-forced air competition.

Good job! However, you never gave us a final punch line. Specifically, there was no comparison given with an alternate standard heat sink. You did give a figure of merit number at the end, but unless I’m working in this field, I have no more idea than a goat if that is a good number a bad number or A mediocre number. One must always give a conclusion that compares the accomplishments of the work with some baseline predating the work. This applies whether or not the work is better or worse than prior art. It is just as important to know that something is inferior to a prior design as it is to know if it is superior to a prior design. At the end of the presentation, I am left empty handed, having seen what appears to be good work, but not knowing what the net final results were.

Sir we are doing the project on design and analysis of heat sink for Electric vehicle. Which is the best reference paper can u please tell
