MEMS Heat Exchangers reviews key design, fabrication and modeling aspects involved in engineering microscale heat exchangers. It provides detailed equations for designing three core types of MEMS heat exchangers: heat pipes, two-fluid heat exchangers, and heat sinks. Prior to analyzing the details of MEMS heat exchanger design, the book provides relevant information on microfluidic heat transfer and fluid mechanics. In addition, the book provides detailed information on the techniques required for fabricating MEMS heat exchangers including mechanical machining and microfabrication. The book also details several thermal performance enhancement techniques that have been proposed and applied in recent years to MEMS heat exchangers.

• Covers the fundamentals of heat transfer and fluid flow, design and fabrication techniques, and enhancement techniques necessary to develop microscale heat exchangers
• Integrates analysis of all three major forms of heat exchangers - heat sinks, heat pipes, and two-fluid heat exchangers - in one volume
• Provides robust equations for design engineers interested in developing new heat exchangers
• Discusses fabrication techniques for MEMS heat exchangers
