Analytical Modeling in Thermal Management Design . by Dr. Kaveh Azar, Ph.D., Short Course Presenter

2 Hour Short Course

Modeling and simulations are the cornerstone of any successful product launch of electronics products. Engineers are faced with three modeling options, Analytical, Computational and Experimental. In this short course attendees will:

• Review the necessity for modeling
  
• Consider the three ways to perform modeling: integral, computational and experimental
• Consider which modeling is best to use when
• Look at how analytical modeling can be used in place of computational modeling in some instances
  
• Look at their application to a problem domain
• Emphasis is on the use of analytical modeling and how it can help with faster decisions earlier in the design cycle.

Problem domains considered that are analytically modelled include:

• System level modeling of an electronic enclosure with two shelves fully populated
  
• Natural convection modeling application for a computer board
  
• Forced convection modling
• Liquid cooling - cold plate application modeling
• High capacity cooling for cloud computing servers
  

Analytical modeling is a proven method to accurately speed up thermal design, take this course and learn more about how to do that across a variety of problem domains for electronics cooling.
