01Thermal Capability

Thermal Simulation & Model Development

Predictive CFD and thermal-network modeling from board to full system. Build validated digital twins that expose hotspots, airflow shortfalls, and cooling margin before hardware exists.

Recommended Solutions
Simcenter FlothermSimcenter FLOEFDSimcenter Flomaster
Who This Helps
Thermal engineer, systems engineer
Engineering Challenge
New enclosure must dissipate 400 W of GPU load in a passive-plus-fan configuration without derating.
02Thermal Capability

IC / Package / 3D IC Thermal Analysis

Die-level and package-level thermal analysis for chiplets, interposers, and advanced 3D IC stacks. Understand junction temperature and stack-up thermal resistance before RTL freeze.

Recommended Solutions
Calibre 3DThermalInnovator3D IC
Who This Helps
IC designer, 3D IC package architect
Engineering Challenge
Chiplet floorplan drives a 12 °C junction-temperature swing depending on tile placement and TSV density.
03Thermal Capability

PCB & Electronics Cooling

Board-level thermal design driven directly from ECAD. Evaluate component placement, copper distribution, via strategy, and heatsink sizing alongside routing decisions.

Recommended Solutions

Who This Helps
PCB designer, hardware engineer
Engineering Challenge
Dense power-stage placement creates a local hotspot that the enclosure airflow cannot resolve.
04Thermal Capability

Thermal Characterization & Validation

Non-destructive junction-to-ambient measurement, TIM characterization, and accelerated power-cycling. Turn measured device behavior into validated inputs for simulation.

Recommended Solutions
T3SterDynTIMPower Tester
Who This Helps
Reliability engineer, component engineer
Engineering Challenge
Simulation and measured Rth diverge by more than 20 % on a SiC module — the TIM bond-line is not what the datasheet assumed.
05Thermal Capability

Optimization & Design Exploration

Automated design-of-experiments and multi-objective optimization across thermal, weight, cost, and packaging constraints. Explore hundreds of variants without hand-driving each run.

Recommended Solutions
Simcenter HEEDSSimcenter FLOEFDSimcenter Flotherm
Who This Helps
Thermal engineer, mechanical engineer
Engineering Challenge
Heat sink fin geometry, fan curve, and duct shape need to be co-optimized against mass and acoustic targets.
06Thermal Capability
