A numerical study of the effect of area ratio on the flow distribution in parallel flow manifolds used in a Hquid cooling module for electronic packaging demonstrate the useflilness of such a computational fluid dynamic code. The manifolds have rectangular headers and channels divided with thin baffles, as shown in Figure 12. Because the flow is laminar in small heat exchangers designed for electronic packaging or biochemical process, the inlet Reynolds numbers of 5, 50, and 250 were used for three different area ratio cases, ie, AR = 4, 8, and 16.

Electronic-Grade MMCs. Metal-matrix composites can be tailored to have optimal thermal and physical properties to meet requirements of electronic packaging systems, eg, cotes, substrates, carriers, and housings. A controUed thermal expansion space tmss, ie, one having a high precision dimensional tolerance in space environment, was developed from a carbon fiber (pitch-based)/Al composite. Continuous boron fiber-reinforced aluminum composites made by diffusion bonding have been used as heat sinks in chip carrier multilayer boards.
