Just today we posted on some exciting research under the title, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/heatsinks.wordpress.com\/2010\/03\/10\/understanding-how-fluid-boils-in-tiny-microchannels-gives-engineers-another-tool-to-cool-high-power-electronics\/\">Understanding how fluid boils in tiny microchannels\u009d gives engineers another tool to cool high-power electronics<\/a>&#8220;. So what about microchannels and macrochannels? What exactly are they and what are their differences?<\/p>\n<p>Our thermal engineering lab published a paper on this topic of microchannel and macrochannel cold plates. It&#8217;s a great companion read with the topic of boiling fluid for cold plates we&#8217;ve posted here already.
