Heat sinks are being considered in many advanced heat transfer applications including automotive and stationary fuel cells as well as cooling of electronic devices. However, there are innumerable fundamental issues in the fields of heat transfer and fluid mechanics perspectives which remains unresolved. The present review emphasizes on the progress of research in the \ufb01eld of pin fin heat sinks, while understanding the fluid dynamics and heat transfer characteristics with a detailed and sophisticated prediction of the temperature distribution, high heat flux removal and by minimizing thermal resistance. Lot of research work carried out across the globe to address this challenge and trying to come up with an economically viable and user friendly solution. The high activities for future pin fin heat sinks research and development to meet the current issue is recorded in this article.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1]\tKim SK, Lee S, \u201con heat sink measurement and characterization\u201d, Proceedings of the Pacific Rim\/ASME International Intersociety Electronic & Photonic Packaging Conference (INTERPACK\u201997), Hawaii, June, (1997).\r\n[2]\tBiber CR, Belady CL, \u201cPressure drop prediction for heat sinks: what is the best method?\u201d, Proceedings of the Pacific Rim\/ASME International Intersociety Electronic & Photonic Packaging Conference (INTERPACK\u201997), Hawaii, June, (1997).\r\n[3]\tRao T, \u201cFundamentals of microelectronic packaging\u201d, Mc Graw Hill, New York, (2001).\r\n[4]\tShih CJ, Liu GC (2004), \u201cOptimal design methodology of plate-fin heat sinks for electronic cooling using entropy generation strategy\u201d, Comp Package Tech IEEE Trans 27(3), pp 551\u2013559.\r\n[5]\tShah A, Sammakia B, Srihari H \u201cA numerical study of the thermal performance of an impingement heat sink fin shape optimization\u201d, ITHERM 2002:298\u201330, (2002).\r\n[6]\tS.
