Abstract: This presentation is meant to be an overview of the model building process It is based on typical techniques (Monte Carlo Ray Tracing for radiation exchange, Lumped Parameter, Finite Difference for thermal solution) used by the aerospace industry This is not intended to be a “How to Use ThermalDesktop” course. It is intended to be a “How to Build Thermal Models” course and the techniques will be demonstrated using the capabilities of ThermalDesktop (TD). Other codes may or may not have simila…
