ICEPAK Hands on Workshop Advanced Electronics Thermal Management 27 March 2008

Introduction   Management of high local heat fluxes has become a critical issue for the Electronics Industry due to rapid increases in compute power and associated thermal loadings. ANSYS' CFD solutions allows thermal management solutions to be evaluated quickly and early in the design cycle. This results in much better designs, shortened time-to-market, significant cost-savings and higher customer satisfaction.   ICEPAK     ANSYS ICEPAK is a fully interactive, object-based thermal management and optimization solution for electronics systems and components at every phase of the development cycle. Built upon the world’s leading and industry-proven FLUENT solver and ICEM CFD meshing technology, Icepak delivers more speed, more complex problem-solving with robustness and more computational efficiency than any other thermal modeling software.   ANSYS Icepak gives unprecedented accuracy in thermal analysis with: Advanced hexa-unstructured meshing technology, allowing meshing of curves, inclined objects and non-rectangular components needed to build high-quality realistic models for today’s complex designs. Second-order scheme which produces more accurate temperature gradients compared to first order schemes normally used. Ability to take into account the joule-heating effects of traces and vias, normally ignored. ANSYS Icepak gives much faster results through: Easy-to-use, powerful and highly automated meshing technology. Parallel processing capability, allowing the most complex designs to be analyzed and convergence reached in the shortest time. Ability to transfer files to ANSYS Multiphysics solutions for sequential coupled field analysis.   Please click here for detailed product features.     Who Should Attend?      R&D Directors / Managers Thermal / Mechanical Engineers Electronics Engineers Project Managers Anyone involved in thermal management issues in the Electronics Industy   Temperature distribution and cooling airflow in an electronics enclosure.   Workshop Highlights ANSYS In Electronics - Solution Overview System Level Thermal Management Hexa – unstructured Meshing Technology Non – conforming Mesh Algorithm Importance of trace/joule heating effects Case studies            Omega heat sink - mesh follows the geometry exactly Contours of temperature on the unit Animation showing contours of temperature and path lines from the fan - colored by temperature   Testimonials   "The results of our model demonstrated that the proposed thermal management solution can adequately cool the appliance's components.  The icepak simulations helped the design team to optimize a thermal management solution before the fabrication of actual hardware.  Now, it will be possible to build prototype hardware with a suitable cooling scheme on the first attempt.  The parametric capability of Icepak made it possible to optimize many parameters to provide the best solution that meets all of the system requirements."   — Javier Leija, Intel   "We performed all of the structural analysis on a chassis using the information gained from the Icepak analyses, as the thermal scheme drove the structural design.  We also used icepak at each design stage, simulating the conditions before the engineers ran tests.  The results always fell within 10% of the actual test results, cutting down on the time and money we spent in making modifications during the prototyping phase."   — Mario D'Angelo, Jabil Circuit Workshop Information           Date               :      27 March 2008 (Thursday) Time               :     2:00 pm - 5:00 pm  Venue            :     CAD-IT Training Centre              For more information or enquiries, please contact Mr Kelvin Lim at 6508 7562 (kelvin.lim@cadit.com.sg) or register at our event website.    About CAD-IT Formed in 1991, CAD-IT is a leading PLM solution, manufacturing and education provider to over 1,600 companies throughout South East Asia and China.  With 7 offices and 2 manufacturing plants in SEA and China, CAD-IT's mission is in providing world-class solutions and services that enable companies and their supply chains to achieve greater product innovation, quality and productivity with drastically reduced time-to-market and costs.   CAD-IT is extremely honoured to have received 51 International Awards since its inception for marketing and service excellence.     As an exclusive partner of ANSYS, Inc. in the ASEAN region, CAD-IT has a proven track record of success and is extremely honored to have received 8 ANSYS Outstanding Performance Award over the past 11 years, consecutively from years 1998 to 2000 and from 2002 to 2006 in recognition of her excellence in marketing, provision of training, consulting and technical support of the entire range of ANSYS solutions.   About ANSYS, Inc.
