Cooling, CFD, ANSYS, heat exchanger.

This scientific article deals with the study and simulation of a radiator that is based on a cross-flow tubular heat exchanger, which has the purpose of cooling the processor, graphics card of a CPU or various hardware in computer systems. Various simulations are carried out in the ANSYS program having various inlet temperatures ranging from
75 °C to 90 °C and with different mass flows. The results show that, as the inlet temperature of the fluid to be cooled increases, the outlet of this fluid also increases. However, when mass flow is increased there is a decrease in heat rejection in computational devices.
