“…Therefore, for 1D heat flow, the nodes located in the middle of the cuboid blocks represent a particular material layer wherein resistance is combined as lumped elements. 73 T 1 , which is user-specified, represents the temperature at a node located on the inner surface of the device shell. By contrast, the three other temperatures are calculated during the solution process and they represent the average temperature in each layer of the skin.…”

“…Four nodes are associated with varying temperatures along the circuit, namely, T 1 , T 2 , T 3 , and T 4 . Therefore, for 1D heat flow, the nodes located in the middle of the cuboid blocks represent a particular material layer wherein resistance is combined as lumped elements 73 . T 1 , which is user‐specified, represents the temperature at a node located on the inner surface of the device shell.…”

“…Natural convection, which occurs when fluid or air movement is driven solely by buoyancy forces arising from temperature variations without external mechanical assistance, typically has values ranging from 5 to 15 W/m 2 C [64]. The measurement of free convection can be readily accomplished using either the lumped capacitance method or analytical techniques [65]. Forced convection happens when air/fluid moves due to external force.…”
