Thermal analysis can precisely predict design performance and improve reliability.

Key Benefits

bulletRun through various scenarios before building prototypes.
bulletDetermine heater specifications without elaborate testing.
bulletVisualize transient characteristics or steady-state performance.

Capabilities

Download "Transient Thermal" to view a movie (zipped AVI format) showing the temperature field resulting from a 5 W heater on a packaged electro-optic chip at 100 ms intervals.

About the movie:  The assembly contains 25 part instances and 7 distinct part definitions.  The mesh contains 478,214 nodes and the analysis was performed using COSMOSWorks.  A 5 W heat input was defined on the face of the patterned heater and time steps of 100 ms were defined, while the underside of the substrate was held at 25 degrees C.

Custom Mesh Densities
If default mesh densities do  not provide the level of detail required, we have the know-how, and the patience, to generate mesh controls that produce vast scaling differences from areas of interest to background components.
Transient Analysis
We are comfortable providing both quantitative and qualitative results from transient analysis.
Familiarity with Materials
Not only do we have a vast material definition library, but we have experience dealing with a wide variety of exotic materials in the "real world."
