TOAPANTA, Fernando; CORTEZ, Jairo; QUITIAQUEZ, William  and  ORELLANA, Wilson. Numerical Study Using CFD of the Cooling Process with Heat Exchangers in Computer Systems. Revista Técnica energía [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.2, pp.55-64. ISSN 2602-8492.  https://doi.org/10.37116/revistaenergia.v17.n2.2021.422.

This scientific article deals with the study and simulation of a radiator that is based on a cross-flow tubular heat exchanger, which has the purpose of cooling the processor, graphics card of a CPU or various hardware in computer systems. Various simulations are carried out in the ANSYS program having various inlet temperatures ranging from 75 °C to 90 °C and with different mass flows. The results show that, as the inlet temperature of the fluid to be cooled increases, the outlet of this fluid also increases. However, when mass flow is increased there is a decrease in heat rejection in computational devices.
