measure temperature on a Heat Sink
measure temperature on a Heat Sink
(OP)
Hi,
I have few LEDs (Heat source) on a the base of a Heatsink. While the LEDs are turned ON, I need to simulate the Heat on the heatsink. The various temperatures on the various areas of the Heatsink.
1. Which is the addin I need to use for this?
2. Please suggest a bit on how to interpret the results & Corrective actions?
Thx

2. One of the first tutorials for the software probably has a similar analysis.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I noticed that there was another addin called Floworks. When I read the synopsis of this addin, it appeared to me that it could me more appropriate to my application than the simulation addin.
Basically, I my application I have electrical fixture. The lamp is a source of heat ( & Light :) ). The heat from the lamp has to be transfered to atomosphere via heatsink. DUring design Its important to measure various temp zones through out the assly.
