Abstract : Two-dimensional compressible momentum and energy equations with slip boundary conditions are solved to obtain the heat transfer characteristics of gaseous slip flow in a micro-channel with CWT (constant wall temperature) whose temperature is lower or higher than the inlet temperature (cooled case or heated case). The numerical methodology is based on the Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method. The stagnation temperature is fixed at 300 K and the computations were done for the wall temperature which ranges from 250 K to 350 K. The channel height ranges from 2 to 10 ¥ìm and the channel aspect ratio is 200. The stagnation pressure is chosen in such a way that the exit Mach number ranges from 0.1 to 0.7. The outlet pressure is fixed at atmospheric condition. The bulk temperature and the total temperature of the heated case are compared with those of the cooled case and also compared with temperatures of the incompressible flow in a conventional sized channel. Heat transfer characteristics of the gaseous flow are different from those of the liquid flow. And they are also different from each cooled and heated case. A correlation for the prediction of the heat transfer rate of the gaseous slip flow in a micro-channel is proposed.
