Thermal Simulation Application - Cooling Electric Motors

Anonymous — Thu, 05 Jul 2018 14:19:30 GMT

Hey everyone I had some fun with thermal simulations in Fusion 360 the other day and wanted to share this example! It's a pretty practical application of running a quick thermal simulation for relative comparison purposes. That is to say, I don't expect this simulation to be absolutely correct because of the assumptions made during the analysis process, but I expect the relative results between different simulations with a similar setup to contain meaningful data that I can use. In this example it's specifically the expected temperature drop with a heat sink.

Here's the first video exploring the problem, analyses and possible options for resolution:

And here's the second video where we actually do some testing!

If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

Congratulations, great work!
I'm thinking of developing a 4x4 now I can get some ideas here 🙂
