Forced Convection Cooling of Horizontal Circuit Board

In this suite of models, temperature distribution and fluid flow field is modeled with the General Heat Transfer and the Non-Isothermal Flow application modes. By modeling the fluid flow and heat transfer simultaneously the convective transfer is described very accurately. The results are analysed and the corresponding convective heat transfer coefficient is calculated together with the Nusselt number.


By modeling fluid flow and heat transfer simultaneously, convective heat transfer is described in a circuit board.
