TITLE : Cooling of two fully populated PCB's

DATE : 1999
FOR : Demonstration case
PHOENICS version: HOTBOX-99
DETAILS :
This case represents a real-life model of an electronic box. It has 12
chips dissipating heat and mounted on two PCBs. Flow is forced through
the box by a fan. Turbulence is modelled using LVEL turbulence model.
A computational 'smoke' concentration distribution is calculated to
see how cooling flow penetrates the recirculation region.
Pictures are as follows :
