Micro electro mechanical systems are studied in this paper along to comparing
the design, fabrication, and operation of such devices especially in the
electronic industry. The advancements of such systems are important as scale
reduction is becoming more economical and also in heat dissipation efficiencies.
Furthermore, the fabrication techniques are becoming more of a challenge
in today’s industrial market. In this paper we will introduce a comparative
study of experimental research in the micro scale heat exchanger with varieties
of industrial application primarily cooling integrated circuits. Significant
effect in the process of cooling electronic devices has showed experimentally
that scale variations impact into this improvement. Numerical studies
have been a leading technique in the development of thermal systems especially
at the micro or small scales which helps the industry to cut cost and
provide innovative products at high efficiencies. There are so many approaches
to numerical analysis and research, where the availability of ready to
use software and data acquisition modules is variant. Material selection is also
a variable in the efficiency and operations of these micro channel thermal system
and heat exchangers.
