Thermal Simulation Results

[lelouchparanoid]

How do I derive the "Heat Loss %" that is happening from the heatsink based on the results?

Hi,

There is no Heat Loss result that is available in Fusion 360 Thermal studies. A manual calculation will involve computing the face area and multiplying that by the heat flux on a face (which could be in any direction) to get the total heat through the heat sink surfaces.  . Thanks

Best regards

Hi,
In Autodesk CFD, there are heat loss calculations. It is possible to calculate the factor (W/m2dT) per particular surface (heat flux).
