I-DEAS Electronic System Cooling(TM)

I-DEAS Electronic System Cooling(TM) software is designed to simulate 3-D air flow and thermal behaviour in electronic systems. It is an integrated part of I-DEAS Master Series(TM) software, which means modeling is performed directly with design geometry using the I-DEAS simple and intuitive graphical interface. With I-DEAS Electronic System Cooling, you can model individual components, multichip modules, heat sinks, PC boards as well as complete electronic systems. Unstructured free meshing and powerful mesh coupling technology allow you to simulate both system level and component detail in a single model. The sotware helps you to quickly perform a detailed thermal analysis and pinpoint design problems. It assists with practical engineering challenges including:

(*) Optimizing the placement of critical components

(*) Investigating both forced and natural convection cooling schemes

(*) Positioning and sizing of fans and vents

(*) Spacing requirements between boards and assemblies

(*) Optimizing the size and shape of heat sinks to maximize convection

(*) Effective conductive heat transfer using thermal vias and heat spreaders.

I-DEAS Electronic System Cooling places thermal simulation of electronic products on the critical path of design.
