Abstract
The fabrication of compact heat exchangers with precisely designed micro- and mini-channels is crucial for enhancing the efficiency of thermal management systems. Friction stir channeling (FSC) emerges as a cost-effective advanced manufacturing process to create complex integral channels, offering channel shape and size flexibility. This review article highlights the pivotal role of processing parameters in channel formation and maintaining their integrity, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of material flow dynamics. A rigorous assessment has been conducted on the channel under mechanical stresses, including tension, bending, and fatigue. The paper emphasizes the potential of FSC to revolutionize heat sink applications by exploring the fundamental concepts, governing parameters, ongoing enhancements in tool design, microstructural and mechanical properties, and heat transfer performance.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
