Analysis has been carried out to demonstrate that a liquid nitrogen cooled microchannel heat exchanger can be designed to maximize the heat transfer from silicon to the working fluid. The results show that the performance of the liquid nitrogen cooled microchannel heat exchanger is significantly enhanced by approximately three times over flowing water through microchannels.
