黒田鉄工 Company Overview

We conducted a benchmark of existing products to consider the application of new thermal management components for the development of new thermal management parts. In the benchmark, we disassembled the actual device and measured the temperatures of the installed electrical components to understand the thermal design of the actual device. We created a model for three-dimensional thermal fluid analysis using 3D thermal fluid analysis software, allowing for various investigations, and aligned it with the actual device temperatures. As a result of this initiative, we can now examine new thermal management components using 3D thermal fluid analysis without having to manufacture the actual device.

The series of articles from our company has started in the March 2024 issue (Vol. 68 No. 3) of the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun magazine "Machine Design." It is scheduled to be published in a total of four parts. Part 1: What is thermal theoretical design? Why is thermal theoretical design necessary? Part 2: How to proceed with thermal theoretical design (Part 1) Part 3: How to proceed with thermal theoretical design (Part 2) Part 4: The flow and points to note from thermal theoretical design to actual machine production The March 2024 issue (Vol. 68 No. 3) explains Part 1: What is thermal theoretical design? Why is thermal theoretical design necessary? Please take a look.

We received a request to consider adding a heat sink and fan as measures for heat dissipation of heating components, and we conducted a one-dimensional thermal analysis using the thermal circuit network method to examine the optimal specifications for the heat sink and fan.
