Step 1 of 4 of the Isothermal Temperature Wizard

Step 3 of 4 of the Plot Wizard of Variable Fin Height and Fin Density

Plot Selection Form

External Heat Transfer - External Convection and Radiation

Fan Balancing Example Plots

Fan Balancing Example Plots - Fan Operation at Sea Level and 40KFT

Example Color Contour Plot (5 coolant passes)

Step 4 of 6 of the Non-isothermal Wizard (9 nodes wide by 20 nodes long)

Step 5 of 6 of the Non-isothermal Wizard (power assignment on each node)

Non-isothermal example of automatically building model 4 nodes 4 by 5 nodes long

Non-isothermal analyses methods available: steady-state, transient, flow and no-flow

Steady-State Example Results - Varying Fin Height from .3 to .7 inches. All in one run!

Transient Example Results - Steay-State Analysis followed by Transient with no Fluid Flow

Both Fluid Flowrate and Inlet Fluid Temperature can be input as a function of time

Power and/or Conductors can be functions of time or temperature or constant

Intermediate (.int file) results showing useful input parameters for CFD or FEM

Summary table (.tab file) of results from running a parametric model, in this case varying the fin height and fin density

This is the detailed pressure drop output (.dlp) file showing the pressure drop, etc. at each section.

Nonisothermal detailed results (.out) file showing the cold plate, fluid and power at each node.

The power at various nodes can be controlled by the temperature at a master node, a thermostat location.
