Enhancing thermal management of GaN transistors with direct oil jet impingement: Experimental insights for high-power electronics
This study experimentally investigates the cooling performance of oil jet impingement on high-power GaN transistors, focusing on the effects of nozzle geometry (diameter: 0.5 mm, 1 mm; nozzle-transistor distance: 5 mm, 10 mm) and properties of two fluids (a NewOil-A and Siloil M40). At a flow rate of 80 mL/min, Siloil M40 achieved a heat transfer coefficient of 13 848 W/m2K, reducing junction temperatures to 120 °C under 38 W power dissipation (corresponding to a heat flux density of 135 W/cm2). In contrast, NewOil-A yielded a junction temperature of 90 °C under identical power and heat flux conditions, demonstrating NewOil-A's superior cooling performance. The optimized system enabled a 198 % improvement in power handling compared to uncooled operation. Smaller nozzles (diameter: 0.5 mm) and reduced nozzle-transistor distance (5 mm) enhanced cooling efficiency. Additionally, a novel correlation linking Nusselt, Reynolds, and Prandtl numbers is proposed, offering practical design guidelines for GaN-based power electronics in applications like electric vehicles.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Thermal Sciences is a journal devoted to the publication of fundamental studies on the physics of transfer processes in general, with an emphasis on thermal aspects and also applied research on various processes, energy systems and the environment. Articles are published in English and French, and are subject to peer review.
The fundamental subjects considered within the scope of the journal are:
* Heat and relevant mass transfer at all scales (nano, micro and macro) and in all types of material (heterogeneous, composites, biological,...) and fluid flow
* Forced, natural or mixed convection in reactive or non-reactive media
* Single or multi–phase fluid flow with or without phase change
* Near–and far–field radiative heat transfer
* Combined modes of heat transfer in complex systems (for example, plasmas, biological, geological,...)
* Multiscale modelling
The applied research topics include:
* Heat exchangers, heat pipes, cooling processes
* Transport phenomena taking place in industrial processes (chemical, food and agricultural, metallurgical, space and aeronautical, automobile industries)
* Nano–and micro–technology for energy, space, biosystems and devices
* Heat transport analysis in advanced systems
* Impact of energy–related processes on environment, and emerging energy systems
The study of thermophysical properties of materials and fluids, thermal measurement techniques, inverse methods, and the developments of experimental methods are within the scope of the International Journal of Thermal Sciences which also covers the modelling, and numerical methods applied to thermal transfer.
