Thermocouples are widely used for temperature measurements. They are particularly useful in lab testing, due to their relatively low cost and the ability to easily fabricate thermocouples of specific lengths for a given test. This Tech Brief discusses issues related […]
By: Marta Rencz, Andras Poppe, and Genevieve Martin The 29th issue of the THERMINIC (Thermal investigations of ICs and Systems) workshops was held on 27-29 September 2023 in Budapest, Hungary at the Budapest Marriott Hotel. Over 110 participants enjoyed the […]
The IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm) was held at the JW Marriott Grande Lakes, Orlando, FL, May 30 – June 2, 2023. This was the 22nd ITherm, which was first held in 1988. […]
INTRODUCTION Long time readers may recall that one answer to the question of how humidity changes the thermal conductivity of air is “Nothing to worry about” [1]. Generally, the effect of humidity on air properties is small enough that it […]
This article describes a semi-empirical equation that can be used to assess radiation heat transfer in terms of an effective convection coefficient. The effective convection coefficient due to radiation is shown to be: Where temperatures are in °C and ε […]
By: Parizad Shojaee Nasirabadi, Jesper H. Hattel INTRODUCTION Condensation and moisture related problems are the cause of failures in many cases and consequently serious concerns for reliability in electronics industry. Therefore, it is important to control the moisture content and […]
