Summary

Three-dimensional natural convection flow and heat transfer were studied numerically for a heated, protruding substrate-mounted chip or package in a cubic enclosure filled with a dielectric liquid. The governing steady-state equations for the natural convection within the liquid and the conjugate conduction within the element and the substrate were solved. Conduction through the substrate plays a dominant role in the cooling of the chip for values of substrate-to-fluid thermal conductivity ratios greater than 10. Comparison of the numerical results with experimental data showed reasonable agreement.
