Lecture

Thermal FEM: Steady State and Transient Analysis

Description

This lecture covers the steady-state thermal analysis of a silicon beam with uniform heat generation, including the effects of convection. It also delves into transient thermal simulations, discussing the heat equation, thermal diffusivity, and lumped element modeling. Practical exercises involve calculating temperature distributions and performing transient thermal analysis. The instructor emphasizes the importance of considering losses due to convection in real systems and provides insights into using COMSOL for thermal analysis.
