Conjugate Convection with Surface Radiation from a Square-Shaped Electronic Device with Multiple Identical Discrete Heat Sources
Abstract Numerical simulation studies on combined conduction–convection–radiation from a square-shaped electronic device with multiple identical flush-mounted discrete heat sources have been performed and the prominent results are reported here. The problem geometry comprises a square shaped slab with four symmetrically located flush mounted identical discrete heat sources. The heat generated in the heat sources gets conducted through the slab and subsequently gets dissipated from its boundaries by the combined modes of convection and radiation. Air, a radiatively transparent medium is considered to be the cooling agent. The governing equations for temperature distribution in the entire computational domain are obtained by appropriate energy balance between the heat generated, conducted, convected and radiated. The resulting partial differential equations are solved using finite difference method in conjunction with Gauss–Seidel iterative technique. A computer code is prepared for the purpose. Exhaustive numerical studies are performed to elucidate the effects of parameters like volumetric heat generation, thermal conductivity, surface emissivity and convection heat transfer coefficient on local temperature distribution, peak device temperature and relative contributions of convection and radiation in heat dissipation.
