Determine how much lower the case temperatures will be when these components are mounted close to the edge of the PCB, as shown in Figure b, instead of the center, as shown in Figure a. Power transistors mounted on an aluminum heat sink plate. (a) Old design (b) New design
Solution Since both plug-in PCBs are Symmetrical about the center, consider each half of the board for the analysis. Q = 3 x 5 = 15 watts La = 3.0 in = 7.62 cm (length of old design) Lb= 1.0 in = 2.54 cm (length of new design) k = 143.8 W/m K (5052 aluminum) A = (5.0) (0.093) = 0.465 in2 = 3.0 cm2 (area) The temperature rise at the old design location: The temperature rise for the mounting position near the edge of the PCB, new design: This shows that moving the transistors closer to the edge of the PCB can reduce the component surface mounting temperature by 26.5 – 8.83 = 17.7 °C.
Chassis design • Electronic systems normally consist of many different electronic component parts, such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, microprocessors, and transformers, which are enclosed within a support structure called the chassis, such as a chassis used in a space craft as shown.

Introduction Conduction cooling for chassis and circuit boards • Conduction cooling is important method used in many practical electronic systems such as spacecraft system as shown below. Shows a conduction-cooled electronic box designed to carry the heat down the vertical walls to a base cooled plate conduction-cooled electronic box designed to carry the heat from vertical walls to a base plate, for mounting in a spacecraft.
Uniformly distributed heat sources, steady state conduction • Identical electronic components are often placed next to one another, on circuit boards, as shown below. When each component dissipates approximately the same amount of power, the result will be a uniformly distributed heat load.
Uniformly distributed heat sources, steady state conduction Parabolic temperature distributions for uniform heat load on a circuit board.
Uniformly distributed heat sources, steady state conduction When only one side of one strip is considered as shown in section AA, a heat balance equation can be obtained by considering a small element dx of the strip, along the span with a length of L. Then Where Then
Uniformly distributed heat sources, steady state conduction Then This is a second-order differential equation, which can be solved by double integration. Integrating once yields to The constant C1 is zero because at x = 0, the plate is adiabatic The constant C2 is determined by letting the temperature at the end of the plate be te; Then
Uniformly distributed heat sources, steady state conduction The temperature at any point along the plate (or strip) is When x = 0. This results in the equation for the maximum temperature rise in a strip with a uniformly distributed heat load. The total heat input along the length L is Then
Example A series of flat pack integrated circuits are to be mounted on a multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) as shown below. Each flat pack dissipates 100 milliwatts of power. Heat from the components is to be removed by conduction through the printed circuit copper pads, which have 2 ounces of copper [thickness is 0.0028 in (0.0071 cm)]. The heat must be conducted to the edges of the PCB, where it flows into a heat sink. Determine the temperature rise from the center of the PCB to the edge to see if the design will be satisfactory. Note that the typical maximum allowable case temperature is about 212°F.
Solution The flat packs generate a uniformly distributed heat load, which results in the parabolic temperature distribution shown in Figure. Because of symmetry, only one half of the system is evaluated. The temperature rise at center of the PCB Where: Q= 3(0.1) =0.3 Watt heat input, one half strip L= 3 in = 7.62 cm (length) k= 345 W/m.K A= (0.2) (0.0028) =0.00056 in2 =0.00361 cm2 (cross-sectional area) Then
Solution The amount of heat that can be removed by radiation or convection for this type of system is very small. The temperature rise is therefore too high. By the time the sink temperature is added, assuming that it is 80°F, the case temperature on the component will be 277°F. Since the typical maximum allowable case temperature is about 212°F, the design is not acceptable. If the copper thickness is doubled to 4 ounces, which has a thickness of 0.0056 in (0.014 cm), the temperature rise will be 114.5°F (45.85°C) then the case temperature on the component will be about 195°F so that the system can be operated safely. For high-temperature applications, the copper thickness will have to be increased to about 0.0112 in (0.0284 cm) for a good design.
Chassis with nonuniform wall sections Electronic chassis always seem to require cutouts, notches, and clearance holes for assembly access, wire harnesses, or maintenance. These openings will generally cut through a bulkhead or other structural member, which is required to carry heat away from some critical high-power electronic component. This cutouts result in nonuniform wall sections, which must be analyzed to determine their heat flow capability. One convenient method for analyzing nonuniform wall sections is to subdivide them into small units that have relatively uniform sections. The heat flow path through each of the small units can then be defined in terms of a thermal resistance. This will result in a thermal analog resistor network. Two basic resistance patterns, series and parallel, are used to generate analog resistor networks.
Chassis with nonuniform wall sections Series flow resistor network Rt= R1+ R2+R3+ ………… Parallel flow resistor network.
Example • An aluminum(5052) plate is used to support a row of six power resistors. Each resistor dissipates 1.5 watts, for a total power dissipation of 9 watts. The bulkhead conducts the heat to the opposite wall of the chassis, which is cooled by a multiple fin heat exchanger. The bulkhead has two cutouts for connectors to pass through, as shown in Figure. Determine the temperature rise across the length of the bulkhead.
Solution • A mathematical model with series and parallel thermal resistor networks can be established to represent the heat flow path, as shown in Figure. Bulkhead thermal models using a series and a parallel resistor network
Solution • Firstly must determine the values of each resistor. - Determine resistor R1: L1= 2 in = 5.08 cm k1= 158 W/m.K A1= (5) (0.06) = 0.3 in2 = 1.935 cm2 - Determine resistor R2: L2= 1.5 in = 3.81 cm K2= 158 W/m.K A2= (0.375) (0.06) = 0.0225 in2 = 0.145 cm2 (average area) - Determine resistor R3: L3= 1.5 in = 3.81 cm K3= 158 W/m.K A3= (1) (0.06) = 0.06 in2 = 0.387 cm2
Solution - Determine resistor R4: L4= 1.5 in = 3.81 cm K4= 158 W/m.K A4= (1.5) (0.06) = 0.09 in2 = 0.581 cm2 - Determine resistor R5: L5= 1 in = 2.54 cm K5= 237 W/m.K A5= (4.75) (0.06) = 0.285 in2 = 1.839 cm2
Solution • After getting all resistors we can simplify the network. Where resistors R2, R3 and R4 are in parallel, which results in resistor R6. • The total thermal resistance is • The temperature rise across the length of the bulkhead is.
