Ansys Icepak

Ansys Icepak® (electronics cooling simulation software) is an electronics-specific simulation tool for the thermal design management and cooling of electronics product. Based on Ansys Fluent® (fluid simulation software) CFD solver, Ansys Icepak® is capable of predicting temperature, airflow and heat transfer in printed circuit boards, IC packages, power electronics, and electronics assemblies.

Thermal Design Management

With the ability to handle both mechanical and electrical CAD model, Ansys Icepak® facilitates the solving of challenging thermal management problem and electronics products and systems.

Being a part of the Ansys Electronics Desktop (AEDT)™ (electronics systems design platform) enables Ansys Icepak® to couple and utilize multiphysics aspects of electronics design and is able to include electromagnetic loss densities and be part of an electronics reliability workflow for predicting temperature rise in tight connection with Ansys SIWave™ (printed circuit board (PCB) and package electromagnetics simulation software), Ansys Mechanical™ (structural finite element analysis software) and Ansys Sherlock™ (electronics reliability prediction software).

Key Features

Ansys Icepak® includes all models for heat transfer, including conduction, convection, and radiation for both steady state and transient analysis. Key Features include:

  • DC joule heating analysis
  • Multiple-fluid analysis
  • Reduced order flow and thermal modeling.
  • Package charaterization

You’re transitioning through a whole range of different speeds and altitudes and it’s really important that your vehicle is stable. We looked at which software could model anything from sea level up to hypersonic speeds and Ansys won that trade-off with its computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and Ansys Fluent in terms of what range it can simulate and what kind of geometry it can handle.

We were enrolled in course Applied Computational Fluid Dynamics and during the course a representative from EDRMedeso held a fantastic workshop and provided support during our projects.

Ever since we became an EDRMedeso customer I’ve never had any complaints. The support response time is always fast and when we have a time-critical issue, I can pick up the phone and get help instantly. That has been super helpful and brought added value to us here at Bruks Siwertell.

With Rescale we have huge computational power available and the possibility to run many analyzes in parallel, so this means we can do quicker design iterations and finalize our designs quicker.

No doubt about that we can save time. You can have the results in a couple of hours instead of over the night.
