The shape of the small piece of geometry that is added so as to successively ‘relieve’ the design determines the…
Adrian Bejan’s Constructal Law states: “For a finite-size system to persist in time (to live), it must evolve in such…
This is what a typical extruded fin heatsink looks like. It’s made of metal and sits on top of IC…
With Semi-Therm 31 just a week away I thought it would be a good time to expand on the (metaphorical)…
Semi-Therm, the world’s largest dedicated electronics thermal conference, will take place between March 15-19 at the Doubletree Hotel in San…
It’s National Engineer’s Week in the US this week. A similar event takes place in the UK in March. I’ve…
A full 3D thermal simulation of an electronic system requires, not surprisingly, a 3D geometric representation of the proposed design….
Horror vacui, Natura abhorret vacuum, Resintenza del vacuo; from Aristotle to Galileo, it has long been known that here on…
Sure, most modern homes have much more advanced water heating systems than a big tank with an electric heater element….
