Version 3.0 of Flomerics' Flo/PCB thermal simulation software helps solve thermal problems in solder reflow processing associated with the use of lead-free solders. Version 3.0 of Flomerics ...

During my internship, I used the CFD simulation package FLOTHERM XT V3.0 by Mentor Graphics to measure the performance of two different heatsinks on a printed circuit-board (PCB). The PCB is ...

Up to now, though, such simulation has primarily been the task of specialized physicists and part of the mechanical evaluation of a PCB’s design. However, it’s possible to solve thermal ...

To produce accurate simulation results, it is essential that the thermal properties of the PCB are accurately represented in the simulation. The average PCB is composed of many layers of conductors ...

“PICLS Lite is an incredibly simple to use free thermal simulation tool for electronic circuit boards, produced by the team behind leading electronics thermal simulation software, Cradle CFD. It ...

This simulation is for “large plane, far.” Thermal vias, almost by definition ... Douglas Brooks has written two books and numerous technical articles on PCB design. He gives seminars on PCB designs ...

Numerical simulation tools, such as TRM ... Thermal gradients are critical In summary, thermal gradients within a typical PCB are significant and complicated. On typical PCBs, heat flows directly ...

Celsius Studio brings a new system-level thermal integrity solution into the marketplace, converging electro-thermal co-simulation ... package and PCB thermal analysis, but also electronics ...

The subsequent 3D electro-thermal simulation process solves for current and voltage potential and uses the Joule heating power as a cell-by-cell power source term in the solution of temperature.
