An approach for thermal simulation and reliability evaluation of MCM film resistors is described. Result can be used to reach an optimal solution based on available data, technology, topology and material parameters. To achieve a high reliability level and performance of the resistors, the board must be designed taking into account the thermal consideration for each component. Result of thermal...

as a covering method of buildings` roof, domed roofs have mostly been applied in iranian vernacular architecture and also in the middle east region according to adobe material abundance comparing with timber. furthermore, dome remains in the first place in architectural designs due to large area coverage and favorable thermal performance; so that it has been widely utilized in mosques, shrines,...

in this paper, we examine the effects of thermal radiation on co2 emission and o2 depletion in an exothermic reactive slab of combustible materials with uniform surface temperature. the governing equations for the nonlinear heat and mass transfer problem are derived and solved numerically using runge-kutta-fehlberg method with shooting technique. numerical expressions for temperature field, co2...

Using ANSYS finite element (FE) package, a multi-physics simulation model based on finite element method (FEM) is introduced for the multi-layer switched reluctance motor (SRM) in the present paper. The simulation model is created totally in ANSYS parametric design language (APDL) as a parametric model usable for various conventional types of this motor and it is included electromagnetic, therm...

Simulation is an important aspect to consider when designing an inspection system based upon machine vision. The tire inspection system uses thermal cameras to inspect the surface of a tire. The simulation of a tire inspection system can yield an optimal set of parameters for a thermal camera, or given a specific thermal camera provide information on the optimal placement of the camera. Since t...

the present paper describes the designing of a thermally and economically optimum mechanical draft counter-flow wet cooling tower. the design model allows the use of a variety of packing materials in the cooling tower toward optimizing heat transfer. once the optimum packing type is chosen, a compact cooling tower with low fan power consumption is modelled within the known design variables. mor...

abstract in this research the thermal stratification of the water in the torogh dam basin and the resulted changes in its quality with respect to temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen was investigated using the dynamic reservoir simulation model. the results indicated that in wet years such as 1998, when the average annual precipitation and the resulted inflows to the basin is higher than ...
