OneBTS Base Station Thermal Simulation vs Test Results
Requires Flash Player.
Market demands are driving shorter development time scales and invariably applying more time scale pressures and risk to development communities. This requires the development communities to increase its management of risk and begin to adopt a "get it right first time" approach and this is one of the main benefits of Concurrent Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis. This presentation demonstrates the predictive accuracy of CFD analysis on a natural convection cooled product and highlights the advantages and potential pitfalls when performing CFD analysis.

Overview
This presentation demonstrates the predictive accuracy of Concurrent Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis on a natural convection cooled product and highlights the advantages and potential pitfalls when performing CFD analysis.
Market demands are driving shorter development time scales and invariably applying more time scale pressures and risk to development communities. This requires the development communities to increase its management of risk and begin to adopt a "get it right first time" approach -- one of the main benefits of CFD analysis.
