With the emergence of Industry 4.0, electronic and digital devices are incorporated into almost all high tech applications. There has also been a notable shift towards compact electronic devices, which requires more intense operating powers - leading to enormous heat dissipation. Thus, whilst devices are increasingly becoming portable and powerful, thermal management techniques are arguably not catching up at the same rate. Hence, continuous improvement and innovative approaches are needed. In this regard, microchannel-based techniques present innovative possibilities to tackle thermal management and cooling issues in modern appliances across various industries, aligning with the trend to adopt more sustainable approaches and the EU 2016 legislation for heating and cooling. Consequently, our 'Micro-FloTec' project adapts an international, multidisciplinary, and collaborative approach to exchange expertise from 17 research institutions and two industrial partners to trigger significant advancements and agile development for heat transfer and thermal management solutions. The consortium shares robust experience and skills related to heat transfer enhancement, large-scale electrical energy storage via thermal processes, new generation materials science, multi-phase flow, flow and heat transfer of high-temperature rotating parts, design and modelling for energy-efficient control systems, marketing and entrepreneurship skills, amongst others. Based on the appraisal of the current state-of-the-art literature and technologies, we aim to tackle problems within morphological optimization of multiphase heat transfer performance and flow resistance reduction, surface modification techniques, and application of multi-phase physics for performance prompting. Our project will hopefully achieve cost-effective and sustainable solutions, initiate future advancements and investigations, and contribute towards the EU's 2050 long-term strategy for climate and energy saving goals.

随着行业4.0的出现，电子和数字设备几乎将所有高科技应用程序都纳入。向紧凑的电子设备进行了显着转变，这需要更强烈的工作力量 - 导致巨大的散热。因此，尽管设备越来越变得便携和强大，但可以说，热管理技术并没有以相同的速度赶上。因此，需要持续改进和创新方法。在这方面，基于微通道的技术提出了解决各个行业现代设备中的热管理和冷却问题的创新可能性，与采用更可持续的方法的趋势和欧盟2016年的供暖和冷却立法保持一致。因此，我们的“ Micro-Flotec”项目适应了一种国际，多学科和协作的方法，以从17个研究机构和两个工业合作伙伴中交换专业知识，以引发巨大的进步和敏捷的发展，以进行传热和热管理解决方案。该财团分享了与热传递增强，通过热过程，新一代材料科学，多相流量，多相流量，流量和高温旋转零件的热量和热传递相关的强大经验和技能，用于节能控制系统的设计和建模，营销和企业家技能。根据对当前最新文献和技术的评估，我们旨在解决多相传热性能和降低流动性降低，表面修饰技术以及多相物理学在性能提示中的应用中解决问题的问题。我们的项目有望实现具有成本效益和可持续性的解决方案，启动未来的进步和调查，并为欧盟的2050年气候和节能目标做出贡献。
