    Vascularized Mini Cooling Channels To Achieve Temperature Uniformity: Battery Thermal Management and Electronic Cooling
    (MIM RESEARCH GROUP, 2023) Coşkun, Turgay; Çetkin, Erdal
    Here we propose to use of distinct vascularized plates to be used in the applications of battery thermal management and electronic cooling. The temperatures of battery cells increase during charge and discharge; and elevated temperature values in them accelerated degradation and even may trigger battery fire because of the thermal runaway. Therefore, thermal management system is a necessity for battery packs to increase the battery performance and diminish the risk factors in the electric vehicles. Generally, high amount of heat is released in the high capacity (>15 Ah) cells in short time interval under fast charge/discharge conditions; thus, thermal management of the battery system can be achieved with liquid cooling in that situation. A silicon heater system which represents the thermal behavior of a battery cell is manufactured based on the literature and it is used in experiments. Such a method has not proposed up to now in the literature, so the study may be creating a new experimental procedure for future studies without the risk of battery fire/degradation to uncover even extreme conditions experimentally. Electronic cooling is also in prime importance due to enhanced computing requirement of current systems, and vascularized plates can solve the hot spot problems occurring with decreased energy consumption. According to the results, the cooling capacity of the vascularized plates are calculated as 20W, and a battery cell can be kept within its optimal operating temperature range when the heat loads up to 30W. Also, the temperature uniformity along the surface of mimic of the battery is satisfied by vascularized plates.

    Cold Plate Enabling Air and Liquid Cooling Simultaneously: Experimental Study for Battery Pack Thermal Management and Electronic Cooling
    (Elsevier, 2023) Coşkun, Turgay; Çetkin, Erdal
    The temperature of cells varies greatly during dis/charge while their performance and lifetime are greatly affected by this fluctuation. Elevated temperatures may yield battery fire due to thermal runaway as well they accelerate ageing and capacity fade of cells. Thermal management systems are a necessity for electric vehicles to extend the lifetime of battery cells and eliminate any fire risks, especially for fast dis/charging applications. Here, we document a hybrid cold plate with a working fluid(s) of sole air or liquid as well as both of them. Hybridization of air and liquid cooling promises to minimize energy consumption requirements during a charge/ discharge cycle by combining the benefits of both thermal management strategies if energy management is controlled accordingly. The temperature of each cell can be kept below 30 degrees C with the proposed hybrid cooling heat exchanger, and the temperature difference between the cells is reduced by 30 % relative to liquid cooling. The maximum temperatures are decreased by 18 % and 3 % in hybrid cooling when compared to air and water cooling, respectively. Furthermore, a step function combining various discharge rates (1C and 3C) was employed in experiments to mimic a realistic situation, i.e. variable C-rate rather than constant. The results show that the temperature of the battery cells can be kept below 30 degrees C with air cooling for variable discharge rate and the effect of contact resistance should not be overlooked for liquid cooling. Furthermore, the possible use of the proposed hybrid cold plates is surveyed in the cooling of electronic devices which produce more and continuous heat than cells. Therefore, three resistance heaters with a capacity of 50W are used in experiments as well. The results show that the proposed cold plates could be used in both electronics cooling and battery thermal management with a control algorithm to switch between sole working fluid and combination modes which could be developed based on the results of this paper.

    A Review of Heat and Fluid Flow Characteristics in Microchannel Heat Sinks
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2020) Coşkun, Turgay; Çetkin, Erdal
    Heat transfer and flow characteristic in microchannel heat sinks (MCHS) are extensively studied in the literature due to high heat transfer rate capability by increased heat transfer surface area relative to the macroscale heat sinks. However, heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in MCHS differ from conventional ones because of the scaling effects. This review summarizes the studies that are mainly based on heat transfer and fluid flow characteristic in MCHS. There is no consistency among the published results; however, everyone agrees on that there is no new physical phenomenon in microscale that does not exist at macroscale. Only difference between them is that the effect of some physical phenomena such as viscous dissipation, axial heat conduction, entrance effect, rarefaction, and so forth, is negligibly small at macroscale, whereas it is not at microscale. The effect of these physical phenomena on the heat transfer and flow characteristics becomes significant with respect to specified conditions such as Reynolds number, Peclet number, hydraulic diameter, and heat transfer boundary conditions. Here, the literature was reviewed to document when these physical phenomena become significant and insignificant.

    Ventilation Strategies for the Preventive Conservation of Manuscripts in the Necip Paşa Library, Izmir, Turkey
    (Elsevier, 2018) Coşkun, Turgay; Şahin, Cem Doğan; Gülhan, Özcan; Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    Libraries are specific spaces in which the indoor microclimate should meet rigorous requirements such as the thermal comfort of humans and the conservation of books, manuscripts, and cultural property. An inadequate indoor microclimate (mainly temperature, relative humidity, and their fluctuations) in libraries may cause chemical, biological, and mechanical degradations in paper-based collections. In this chapter, the indoor microclimate of the Necip Paşa Library, the historic library located in Tire-Izmir, Turkey, is discussed from the perspective of the preventive conservation of manuscripts. The library, which has no active heating, cooling, and ventilation system, was modeled with the help of a building energy simulation tool, DesignBuilder. The indoor temperature and relative humidity were monitored throughout 1 year and the model was calibrated with respect to these measurements. To reduce the risks of the manuscripts degrading, ventilation strategies were proposed including natural and mechanical control. The results showed that risks of chemical degradation can be diminished to some extent. © 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Microchannel Heat Sink: Nanofluids And/Or Micro Pin Fins
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020) Coşkun, Turgay; Çetkin, Erdal
    Here, we show that overall thermal conductance in a rectangular microchannel heat sink can be maximized with the combination of nanofluids and micro pin fins. We uncover the effect of micro pin fins and nanofluids both separately and simultaneously in order to uncover their effect on the thermal conductance (i.e., thermal resistance). Both nanofluids and micro pin fins decrease the overall thermal resistance due to increase in the average thermal conductivity of the flow system. In addition, they increase the heat transfer surface area of the solid interacting with the fluid. However, the pumping power (pressure drop) increases in both methods due to the increase in the resistances to the fluid flow. The results document what should be the nanoparticle volume fraction mixed into the base fluid and the micro pin fin volume in order to minimize thermal resistance. If the thermal conductivity of the nanoparticles and micro pin fins are the same, the thermal conductance becomes the maximum with 4% and 0.14% volume fractions for the nanofluid and micro pin fins, respectively. This result shows that inserting micro pin fins and using nanofluids with a given volume fraction ratio maximize the overall thermal conductance. © 2019, © 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

    The Effect of Spatial Interventions on Historic Buildings' Indoor Climate (case Study: Tire Necip Paşa Library, Izmir-Turkey)
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Coşkun, Turgay; Gülhan, Özcan; Şahin, Cem Doğan; Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    The indoor climate of historic libraries should meet rigorous requirements related to human thermal comfort and conservation of books, manuscripts and cultural proper-ties. Paper based collections in historic libraries can be deteriorated chemically, mechanically and biologically because of inadequate indoor climate conditions. In this paper, Necip Paşa Library, the historic library located in Tire-Izmir, Turkey, was selected as a case study. The chemical, mechanical and biological degradation risks on the manuscripts were evaluated based on the indoor climate parameters measured for one year period. The Library, consisting of a main hall, a manuscript zone and an entrance hall, was modelled via the dynamic simulation software, Design Builder. Calibration of the model was conducted with respect to the measured indoor temperature and relative humidity values. The portico/Revak at the south facade of Library was converted into the entrance hall by wooden framed windows in 1930. To be able to see the effect of that intervention on the indoor climate (correspondingly on degradation risk of the manuscripts), a new model, namely semi-open model, was created and simulated. A remarkable change has not been observed on chemical degradation risk when the results of semi-open and existing library models were compared, while mechanical and biological degradation risks were less in semi-open model.

    The Importance of Internal Heat Gains for Building Cooling Design
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Coşkun, Turgay; Turhan, Cihan; Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    This paper aims to investigate the effect of internal heat gains on the cooling load of a building. The house occupied by three adult men is selected as the case study for paper. The house is in the third floor of the apartment. The apartment has four flats and it has no insulation around the external walls. The heat dissipation from lighting devices, electrical equipment and the occupants are calculated by using the DesignBuilder v4 Beta release simulation program. The temperature of the house is observed during three weeks by using hobo data loggers and calibration of the measurements is made with respect to weather data file of the flat. Detailed schedule based on time of operation and occupancy is prepared to get more accurate results. Annual energy consumption and cooling load of the house is determined by using the dynamic simulation program.
