Abstract:Many novel thermal management technologies have been developed to ameliorate the losses from modern electronics. As these techniques are developed, designers endeavor to compare each method with existing concepts. However, many of these comparative metrics can be system-dependent, leading to inconclusive results. One of the most common metrics, the thermal resistance, is a simple relationship between the total heat transfer from a device and its temperature rise above a reference condition. However, the therma… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
