Computational Fluid Dynamics...

I have to ask the obvious stupid question-------what does fluid dynamics have to do with heatsinking?

Hi Lee
CFD is used in just about all thermal analysis. Air is a fluid and you are transferring heat to the air to heatsink. Thus the fluid dynamics of air come into play in modeling cooling systems. CFD modeling is done using a CAD tool called Flotherm or Icepak.

Yea, Sometimes we swim through the air

Thanks Joe. Skratch----only when I'm dancing.....

Well can't wait to get home and turn the pig up. Truly gonna make tomorrow. Also Lee, did you get my PL 400?

 

[laatsch55]

Yo Ken!!! Wondered when you would get out, got a little concerned. Yep your 400 made it in fine shape and she's quite the cherry.

 

[Ken.nelson0317]

Ken,

I'm real glad you're doing well. I read in a previous thread that you were going under the knife and I noticed that you had not posted in a while but I didn't remember the time line. Shit - my bad!

Anyways - get well soon and here is your get well Mobius drawing. One of the most familiar (and best looking) Canuks in recent history.

So all you guys north of the 49th - why is Pamela so famous? I think I know as anatomy is one of my favorite hobbies.

Andersen??

She is?

 

[NavLinear]

Andersen??

Yes

 

[NavLinear]

She is?

Isn't she?

 

[laatsch55]

That one doesn't look as rode hard and put away wet as the one Tommy was running around with,

 

[NavLinear]

Yeah - she looks like a cross between pre enhancement, rode hard and Bay (Babe) Watch.

Thanks . Got home last night. Felt really good to be home. Actually got a pretty good sleep last night. Put on PF Animals and nodded off and slept through most of the night. I have many ideas about Pam, but think its her eyes. lol

 

[laatsch55]

Yep, what a pair of eyes!!

Running a 3.6 ohm load on a 700 will open those thermostats rather quickly when driven moderately. Trust me

BACK_BACK_BACK___the PIG is BACK!! AKA, the guinea pig. Originally started out as a trade for some work done to Ft. Dodge Chris. Got here and I putzed with it awhile and then the copper heatsink dealie, then began life as a loaner. When I fix a 400 you have the option of having a loaner thrown in the cabbage case when it comes to take your amp away. 15.00 more to ship an amp in it opposed to empty. Doesn't cost any rent or bullshit, keep it till yours gets back.

Final upgrade to the PIG was a White Oak driver board, FaboNav's bias tranny bracket stuffed with 2N5088's and some other stuff...Fixin to put it on the horns, got a feelin about this one.......
