Electronics cooling simulation was born out of the world of CFD, rather fully conjugate heat transfer simulation where convective, radiative…
FloTHERM, and its sister product FloVENT, have been going since 1989. Many in the Mechanical Analysis Division in Mentor have…
Next stop on the avenue of package thermal modelling is 2 resistor CTMs (compact thermal models). Specifically Theta_jb and Theta_jc,…
The simplest of compact thermal models (CTMs) is a one resistor type. Of these the most widely quoted is Theta_ja…
Lumped block package representation makes the best use of limited available data to simulate for an ‘indication’ of case temperature….
