By Victor Chiriac1, Steve Molloy1, Jon Anderson1, Ken Goodson2 1 Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., 2 Stanford Mechanical Engineering Introduction With smart phones and other mobile devices available in a variety of sizes and shapes, it is challenging to think in a consistent and comparative manner about the effectiveness of the thermal management solutions that they employ. This … [Read more...]
Top 7 FloTHERM V11 Features – #4: FloMCAD Automation
Software can be described in two ways, what it does (functional) and how it does it (non-functional). As a software matures in terms of its functional capability it is often the case that more effort goes in to developing it's non-functional strengths. We introduced 'FloSCRIPT' with V10, a scripting language to enable FloTHERM to be operated without the need for laborious … [Read more...]
Scientists Investigate New Metal Alloy System
A new study published in Scientific Reports by scientists at Rochester Institute of Technology investigates a metal alloy system that could lead to commercially viable magnetic refrigerants and environmentally friendly cooling technologies. "The materials use magnetic fields to change a refrigerant's temperature without the coolant gases associated with global warming. The … [Read more...]
Top 7 FloTHERM V11 Features – #3: FloMCAD’s New GUI
With FloTHERM V10 we embarked on a GUI replacement program to update the GUI and user experience for all of FloTHERM's application windows. In V11 the replacement program continues with FloMCAD. As with all such evolutionary approaches it is important to maintain the paradigms on which the software is based so as not to necessitate retraining but also provide an improved more … [Read more...]
Top 7 FloTHERM V11 Features – #2: FloMCAD’s Voxelize
The simulation of MCAD geometry is a day to day requirement for the majority of thermal design engineers, especially those at systems integrating companies. Despite repeated advances over the last 2 decades in the robustness of neutral format readers and writers, feature recognition functions and healing algorithms, importing and preparing MCAD data for analysis is still not a … [Read more...]
