Compact thermal modeling in electronics design Sarang Shidore Flomerics Inc Introduction The challenge of accurately predicting junction temperatures of IC components in system-level CFD simulations has engaged the engineering community for a number of years. The primary challenge has been that near-exact physical models of such components (known as detailed thermal models, or … [Read more...]
About viscosity
Table 1. Dynamic Viscosity Values for Various Gases and Liquids When we look at a fluid parcel subject to a velocity gradient in the direction perpendicular to the direction of the flow, we observe that this fluid parcel deforms. This type of deformation is called shear. The ability to withstand shear is a material property called the dynamic viscosity m. The viscosity … [Read more...]

Piezo actuators for electronics cooling
Introduction Today, there is a specific demand by the electronics consumer market: more devices using low power processors with multiple simultaneous CPU functions. Due to the significant demand in computing needs, the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) 2005 predicts an increase in the overall power consumption for some platforms [1]. The cooling issues … [Read more...]
