Thermal management of high power electronics with phase change cooling.

Summary

The one-dimensional thermal model consists of a finite slab suddenly exposed to a uniform heat flux at the top surface and cooled by convective air at the bottom. The phase change problem is divided into sub-problems and solved progressively. Before the slab starts to melt, both exact and approximate solutions are presented for the distribution of temperature in the slab as functions of time and Biot number.
