Abstract

Recently, advanced in the technologies have made possible the use of microchannel heat exchanger in wide industry application. There are numbers of experiments and numerical simulations carried out by previous researcher in order to investigate the performance of the microchannel. In order to see and understand the optimal performance of microchannel heat exchanger, heat transfer and pressure drop behaviour and characteristics was analyzed through the numerical simulation. The incompressible laminar Navier Stokes will be employed as the governing conservation equation. A three dimensional model was developed to simulate the heat transfer performance of microchannel heat exchanger. CFD software was used in this study. With the appropriate meshing size, the model was tested on the grid independence test. The three dimensional model will be use and validated with the numerical code technique. The results then will be analysis for further studies
