WEBINAR: Removing Thermal Bottlenecks with Passive Thermal Management Tools and Tactics

This webinar covers the following topics:
• Heat Pipe Design Best Practices
• HiK™ Benefits and Implementation
• Passive Thermal Management Solutions Overview
• Heat Pipe Modeling Guidelines

As device power levels increase and footprints decrease, Design Engineers are facing increasingly difficult thermal management challenges. This webinar discusses passive thermal management solutions that are being successfully implemented in a variety of applications throughout the defense, medical, and power conversion industries.

In this free webinar, Advanced Cooling Technologies reviews the fundamentals of heat pipes and discuss best practices for their design and implementation into the next-level assemblies. This webinar will provide engineers with an understanding of the fundamental parameters, including operating principles, thermal performance, thermal conductivity, weight, and cost. Selection criteria will also be presented to help select the most pertinent thermal management tool for your specific application. Finally, methods for modeling are discussed, both quick modeling to determine suitability, as well as more accurate modeling for detailed design.
