	Posted Tue November 10, 2009 @12:31PM
	Mentor Graphics will host Heatsink 101 on Nov 18, 2009 from 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM US/Eastern. During this 45 minute presentation, we will focus on how heat sinks work and how to design a heat sink while considering all the critical factors such as size, airflow, cost and attachment methods.

	We will also investigate how, using simulation, the heat sink design could be optimized and validated in the application environment. Engineers involved in board and chassis design would find this session very educational. What You Will Learn How to design a heat sink for a specific electronics cooling application To visualize the airflow around the heat sink and identify potential bypass areas Estimate heat sink thermal resistance Use Response Surface Optimization to come up with the best heat sink design for the considered environment
