Silicon microchannel cooling panel for NA62 Giga-Tracker, proposal G.Nuessle : a first thermo-hydraulic layout attempt for use with monophase, liquid C6F14 circulation

In this proposal, where the hydraulic regime (laminar) of the liquid (monophase) is simple, analytical recipes can be worked out. They show clearly the scaling laws in the relation from coolant pressure budget to panel temperature chart. If the line length is irreducible, then the individual channels cannot become arbitrarily small, even if, then, there can be many to take the total thermal load. The reason is that the "capacitive" component would explode. Apart from showing this, the Note also discusses cross-coupling effects between adjacent U-shaped channels.
