Application: Calgreg and Coolit Build Customer Loyalty
Posted Mon January 23, 2006 @10:54AM
 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application Aided by Coolit, Calgreg is saving its customers money and building the kind of customer relations that result in repeat business from satisfied buyers. The heat sink manufacturer, who services a spectrum of industries, creates custom designs that are frequently better than what the customer asks for.

When a computer chip company developed a thermal solution for its new server chip, the company only expected the vendor to fabricate the design. The company was pleasantly surprised when Calgreg told them it could create a custom heat sink that would be better and less expensive than the in-house design.

ANSYS FLUENT Fluent Sweden AB will hold a turbulence workshop on April 3-5 in Gothenburg. We have invited academic lecturers as well as turbulence experts from the global Fluent community. Subjects such as basic turbulence theory, meshing strategies for turbulence simulations and advanced turbulence modeling will be covered. Please contact fredrik@fluent.se for more details about this workshop.

The workshops are a part of Fluent Sweden's new training program and will aim at a greater understanding of the subject in question with plenty of hands-on sessions where the attendees work with tutorials and their own specific design problems.

Application: Heatsink Designers Turn to Computational Fluid Dynamics
Posted Wed January 18, 2006 @10:19AM
 Print version Email story Tweet story
Application The accelerated release of faster desktop computers being sold at lower prices into the market place has forced thermal engineers to develop and optimize thermal solutions that not only perform better thermally and acoustically, but deliver more value with less weight than previous generations. The continuing reduction in form factor has also increased the challenge placed on today's thermal management designs.

To meet these challenges, Tyco Electronics utilized CFD analysis to optimize both cost and thermal performance of next generation radial folded fin (RFF) heat sinks. This optimized thermal solution approach produced a scalable design capable of meeting the rapidly evolving requirements of the computer market.

News Don writes "We are planning to put a flow solver on the market and are doing a customer survey. We are planning to customize the software for various applications and want to see what is of most interest.

A web page giving access to a free hybrid grid generator controlled by a GUI plus related source code and a CFD screen saver will be made available to anyone who fills out the survey with care and sends it to cfd_survey@telus.net before January 18."
