Thermal analysis takes in IC packaging
Powerful tools for modelling IC packages are among the latest additions to Coolit CFD thermal analysis software.
Thermal analysis needs no knowledge of CFD
New, powerful and highly affordable CoolitPCB frees PCB designers to do their own board level thermal analyses.
The result is a significant speed increase that ranges from a minimum of 1.5 times to almost double for dual processors.
For more processors, speed gains are even greater.
This latest Coolit release, version 4.50, also incorporates numerous new features that aid the model building process and increase modelling accuracy.
Most significant is the addition of new shapes to the component library.
Tetrahedron, pyramid and spherical cap components join the previously released triangular prism components to make possible more complex shapes and more accurate geometries.
Other changes in the new release included greater editing flexibility, a wider range of component characteristics, and customisable projections in panel views.
Coolit v.4.5 also implements a new advanced model for porous media.
The new model is a significant improvement over the standard Brinkman model, which is used in most commercial CFD programs.
Coolit v.4.5 operates on all Windows-based platforms: Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP and NT.
An annual floating license, which includes free CoolPlot visualisation software and full technical support, is priced at $18,000.
Coolit v.4.5 is available for delivery now.
