Anyway quickly..

I was talking about effectiveenss (noncap epsilion), but couldnt remember the name. I was trying to get over how effectiveness would be more helpful in showing performance as a) it gives a baseline of possible performance b) shows how a block performs over a wide range, particularly for low flow where temprature graphs become asymtotic.

Oh and while i remember i found a paper by one of my lectures who is trying to use turbulators to improve cooling performance . hes interested in cooling hot air with a cold plate but some of the same principals are going to apply. He used dimples (hemisperical extrusions) instead of machined more brick like surfaces.
Complete crap.
Focus on Cathar's postulations and apply any privileged(University Library Passwords) to constructive/destructive analysis
