When ?
-When the fluid temperature can be
assimilated as uniform around the solid
part
-When we investigate the behavior of
structural components only under
heating (convection, heat generation,
radiation)
-When we investigate the stress and
deformation caused to the part due to
heat load (Thermal Stress Analysis).

3. You can apply radiation inside the chip to consider the heat
generated by the chip on the other parts.

Convection
Convection
In midas NFX, natural convection conditions caused by the difference between the
ambient temperature and the surface temperature can be applied to nodes,
boundary faces and edges of elements. The amount of heat exchange or heat flux
caused by convection is quite empirical. midas NFX provides two different forms of
heat flux relationship equations by convection.
Transient Convection
Radiation
Radiation
Heat exchange by radiation takes place when a difference between the surface and
ambient temperatures exists. midas NFX can apply heat exchange conditions caused
by radiation. The heat flux from radiation is expressed as,
Cavity Radiation
Since heat exchanges occur in interaction between individual surfaces in radiation
analysis of the interior of a cavity consisting in a number of surfaces, it takes a form
different from the radiation heat exchange with the ambient temperature, which
has been introduced previously. The heat flux per unit area, which is transferred to
the ith face by cavity radiation, is expressed as follows:
In case of an open cavity, the sum from the above equation becomes smaller than 1 in which case
radiation heat is transferred to the ambient air. midas NFX provides a function to automatically calculate
radiation shape factors for specific three-dimensional shapes.
