Summary

The study shows the influence of the blockages (integrated circuit package) dimension, and of their power distribution on the buoyancy-induced flow and thermal field in such a configuration. A two-dimensional, steady state model is used to describe the conjugate natural convection/conduction heat transfer. The development of the buoyancy-induced flow has been studied through the evolution of the streamwise velocity, temperature and heat flux fields.
