Understanding heat transfer phenomena

Reading time: 15 minutes
Increase your understanding of heat transfer with CAD-embedded CFD simulation

Understanding heat transfer phenomena is critical due to its complex behavior. Rules of thumb are often used to visualize the heat path for design or physical prototypes; but knowing how heat is traveling, at what speed and where it will go, is extremely difficult.

Also increasing product complexity means that products are evolving into complex systems of components, electronics, and software, involving multiple engineering disciplines. The number of components, combined with miniaturization, requires an even greater understanding of heat transfer phenomena to see how components interact.

Why is it important to understand heat transfer?

Read this paper to learn why it’s important to understand heat transfer. Among the topics discussed are:

  • Why design engineers need computational fluid dynamics (CFD)  simulation inside their CAD?
  • How frontloading simulation has changed the design process?
  • How can the best ROI be achieved?

The paper also includes real stories of how engineers have benefited from increasing their understanding of heat transfer phenomena to innovate and create better products, faster at a wide range of companies.
