Even if the power supply has a metallic body and mounted straight to the aluminum chamber? Shouldn't the chamber itself be acting as a heat sink? Is case temperature vs. ambient temperature in a linear form? The chamber is made of aluminum die cast 6082 alloy.
Hello all!
So let's say I have a power supply with a case temperature of max 90degC and placed in a 3/16" thick 16"x9"x5" die cast aluminum chamber, fully enclosed.
During normal operations, the case temperature was measured at 74degC at a 25degC ambient temperature (room temperature)...
