Heat Transfer

This analysis type is used to determine the temperature distribution and heat flux in a solid body. You can choose from several boundary conditions for temperature and heat flux to model the thermal loads in your system. | Page 22

Objective: Optimize fin geometry for maximum heat dissipation.
Geometry:
•	Baseplate: 0.1 m × 0.1 m × 0.005 m.
•	Rectangular fins: 0.08 m height, 0.002 m thickness.
•	Pin fins: Cylindrical (diameter = 0.003 m, height = 0.08 m).
Material: Aluminum (k = 160 W/m·K).
Boundary Conditions:
•	Heat source: 100 W applied to baseplate.
•	Convective cooling (h = 25 W/m²·K, T_ambient = 25°C).
Analysis Steps (SimScale):
1.	Steady-state thermal analysis.
2.	Parametric study on fin spacing (5 mm vs. 10 mm).
3.	Evaluate thermal resistance Rth=Tmax−TambientQRth=QTmax−Tambient.
Deliverables:
•	Temperature contour plots.
•	Heat flux magnitude in fins.
•	Comparison of thermal resistance for fin types.
