Abstract
A common heat exchange method used for most new designs is the use of heat sinks such as short pin fins. This experimental study investigated the static pressure characteristics developed in a short pin fin. Different fin array arrangements, fin longitudinal and transverse spacing ratios and individual slot heights in the fin were investigated. It was found that the row removed arrangement has superior flow efficiency, but to enhance heat transfer the staggered array is a better choice; the greater the fin spacing and slot height in each fin are, the less the pressure loss was experienced in the array.
