The performance of the microchannel heat sink (MCHS) in electronic applications needs to be optimized corresponding to the number of channels (N). In this study optimization of the number of channels corresponding to the diameter of the microchannel (D-N) using an entropy generation minimization approach is achieved for the MCHS used in electronic applications. The numerical study is performed for constant total heat flow rate ((q)over dot(tot)) and total mass flow rate ((m)over dot(tot)). The results indicate that the dominance of frictional entropy generation (S-gen,S-Fr) increases with the reduction in diameter. However, the entropy generation due to heat transfer (S-gen,S- HT) decreases with the reduction in diameter. Therefore, the optimum diameter (D*) is calculated corresponding to the minimum total entropy generation (S-gen,S-total) for the optimum number of channels (N*). Furthermore, the entropy generation number (NS) and Bejan number (Be) are also calculated.
