Heat sink dimensioning based on analytical calculation of thermal resistance.
The pressure loss through the cooling system is determined by the specified geometry and the fan. This allows the volume flow rate to be determined. The volume flow can then be used to determine the thermal resistance.
The estimate of the geometry parameters and the fan is mapped to the costs (volume, R_th) using Pareto optimization. About 40 fan characteristic curves are stored in the toolbox.
Installation
Install in developer mode.
git clone git@github.com:upb-lea/HCT_heat_sink_computation_toolbox.git cd HCT_heat_sink_computation_toolbox/ pip install -e .
Usage and examples
Check out the examples in this directory.
Literature
This toolbox implements the thermal basics according to the following paper:
Christoph Gammeter, Florian Krismer and Johann W. Kolar Weight Optimization of a Cooling System Composed of Fan and Extruded Fin Heat Sink
Heat spreading is implemented according to the following Ph.D. thesis:
Christoph Gammeter Multi-Objective Optimization of Power Electronics and Generators of Airborne Wind Turbines
This is supplemented by various calculations and optimizations. E.g. a Pareto optimization is added.

Provenance
Provenance describes where a file came from. On PyPI, provenance is shared via attestations, which provide a verifiable record of the build or publishing details. View details, limitations and caveats.
