How CFD-based software can help meeting thermal design challenges during the development process.

The managing of the heat dissipated in electronics has long been recognized as a major challenge. As functionality has increased, following Moore’s Law, the associated heat dissipation has escalated, to the extent that this has been recognized as a potential limitation on the pace of electronics development. The challenge is to prevent overheating, and failure, of critical components via appropriate cooling strategies. By providing a means of predicting and improving the thermal performance of electronics equipment, CFD-based software has supplied an invaluable design aid in meeting these challenges.
