Numerical investigation of cooling enhancement in double-layer fractal-like microchannel disk heat sinks via layer shifting and tertiary channels by Hosein Akhtari, Ardalan Shafiei Ghazani

“…The thermal and hydrodynamic performance of these enhanced designs is numerically evaluated and compared with single-layer and standard double-layer configurations under heat fluxes of 40, 60, and 80 W/cm² and inlet flow rates from 300 to 600 ml/min. While double layering effectively reduces pressure drop by redistributing the coolant flow, integrating tertiary microchannels leads to an additional ∼1.5 % drop due to reduced velocity and wall shear stress. …”

Simulation of the impacts of high temperature stress on pepper (Capsicum annum L.) yields by Bomi Park, Sojung Kim, Sumin Kim

“…PHR23, having a larger leaf area, accumulated more biomass than fruit yields in the initial month of exposure, thus increasing its yields at higher temperature conditions due to enhanced photosynthesis rates. The crop growth curve and parameters were formulated based on these studies, and the open field simulations were calibrated with measured yields from multiple locations in South Korea from 2020-2024. …”
