In this paper, the pressure loss and heat transfer are investigated for Trapezoidal shape of micro channel in upper flow arrangement for investigating the high performance of micro channel. Micro channels for Re numbers ranging from 90 to 900 are investigated. Splitting the fluid leads to an enhanced heat transfer, but at the same time the pressure loss is increased. The shapes of the micro channel for the flow arrangement are investigated and have a significant influence on both, pressure loss and heat transfer. Fluid flow and heat transfer are simulated for upper flow arrangement with Trapezoidal shape. The aim of this work is to get an impression of the physical behavior in small elements that enable the development of new liquid cooling systems with higher cooling ability and higher effectiveness.

Keywords: Trapezoidal shape of micro channel etc.
