Abstract
In this study, we show the effect of time delay of coolant fluid flow into a vascularized plate on the peak temperature. Coolant flows along vascular channels which were embedded in a rectangular plate. Two kinds of vascular channel designs were investigated experimentally: parallel and tree-shaped. In the study, the peak temperatures were monitored and the coolant was pumped when the peak temperature reaches to 50°C, 70°C and 90°C. The performance comparison of two distinct designs is based on two criteria: the time required for the steady state condition after the coolant is pumped and the peak temperature after the steady state condition is conformed. The results show that the time required to reach steady-state condition increases as the time delay increases. The parallel and tree-shaped designs show similar performance (time required to reach steady state) with slightly improved performance in the tree-shaped design as the preset temperature for time delay increases. For instance, 4% decrease in the time required to reach steady-state with the tree-shaped design relative to the parallel design was achieved when the preset temperature for time delay is 90°C.
