Hi, for my thesis I’m currently creating a conjugate heat transfer simulation. The meshing is not working for my current CAD, because due to the import and translation SimScale itself is generating faults in the model. Has anyone experienced something similiar or could help?

Hi, You will find typical troubleshooting steps here: https://www.simscale.com/knowledge-base/divergence-simulation-knowledge-base/ In short, look around the region where the divergence took place. There will usually be small faces/gaps in the CAD which cause poor mesh quality locally. The most robust workflow is to clean up the CAD model, removing these details. In some (rare) cases, adding mesh…

Pick up a CPU heat sink and look at the tips of the fins. Run the processor hard, then touch the base and the fin tips. The base is hot; the tips are noticeably cooler. That temperature drop is the whole story of fin efficiency. The fin removes heat by convecting it to the air, but it can only convect from a surface that is actually warm. If the tip has cooled almost to room temperature, that par…

A new paper sparked my interest recently: Experimental Thermal Energy Assessment of a Liquid Metal Eutectic in a Microchannel Heat Exchanger Equipped With a (10Hz/50Hz) Resonator by researchers at the University of Adelaide and the University of Denmark. All the key words were there to interest me: thermal, liquid metal, heat exchanger, and eutectic. The post New Research Paper Evaluates Liquid M…
