Aims

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the basics of creating numerical simulations in the field of microelectronics. The course is focused on the CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) SolidWorks Flow Simulation system, specifically the electronic cooling module, in which students will learn to create 3D simulation models of partial microelectronic components and systems. Students will gain knowledge about the essence of numerical simulations and an overview of numerical methods that are used in practice and will be thoroughly familiar with pre and post processing, which is important for the interpretation of results. Students will be able to apply this knowledge in other simulation systems.

- Students gets an overview of the possibilities of the FlowSimulation system.

- Sudents will be able to perform mathematical and physical analyzes in the field of heat transfer.

- Students will be able to solve tasks in the steady state and time domain.

- They will be able to meaningfully interpret the obtained results.
