3 WS6-3 PAT312, Workshop 6, December 2006 Copyright 2007 MSC.Software Corporation Model Description In this exercise you will model a section of a finned heat sink in order to compare the effect of using different materials. The model is a representative fin section of a compressor cylinder casing. The maximum total heating on the casing interior has been determined. A choice of materials is open; the casing can be either aluminum or 1020 steel. Other than cost the only remaining discriminator is temperature; the interior casing surface must not exceed 212 F. If both materials keep this surface at or below 212 F steel will be used otherwise aluminum would be the material of choice. This analysis will determine the material choice.

5 WS6-5 PAT312, Workshop 6, December 2006 Copyright 2007 MSC.Software Corporation Objectives Model two competing finned heat sinks. These will be 2D axisymmetric slices. Exercise Overview: 1. Create a new database named exercise_06.db. Set Tolerance to Default, and the Analysis Code to MSC/THERMAL. 2. Create the five surfaces which define the heat sink geometry. 3. Transform the geometry to create the second heat sink. 4. Mesh the surfaces with an IsoMesh. 5. Create an ambient node Equivalence the nodes at the mating surface edges. 7. Apply element properties to the elements using the MIDs provided. These are 2D Thermal Axisymmetric elements. 8. Apply temperature, flux and convection boundary conditions. 9. Prepare and submit the model for analysis specifying that it is an Axisymmetric Geometry model, that a units conversion is required, and that the direct solver will be used for analysis. 10. Read the results file and plot results. 11. Check the results against the requirement of 212 °F. 12. Quit MSC.Patran.
