Abstract
The use of resonators, filters, interdigital transducers (IDT) and stable sources in electronic industry is widespread today. One of the most used filters are the surface acoustic wave (SAW) type, which is mostly based on Rayleigh waves propagation on the surface. On the other hand, the use of Phase change materials (PCMs) is considered as a heat sink method in the field of thermal cooling of electronic circuits. Recent development in heat transfer is obtained by nanoparticle-enhanced PCM (NEPCM), which is a result of combining nanoparticles with PCMs. Increase of thermal conductivity of NEPCM in comparison with common PCM enhances the heat transfer rate. The aim of the current study is thermal management of SAW for the application of high frequency heating by phase change material. Melting of NEPCMs inside a rectangular cavity next to the SAW cell is used for the cooling purpose. Free convection heat transfer of a NEPCMs in an square cavity is modeled throughout the mass and momentum. Energy governing equations are solved by using the finite element method. Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) forces exist in natural convection heat transfer within the fluid part of the enclosure. The results also show that the NEPCM causes heat transfer improvement up to 10%.
