New Electro-Thermal Integrated Circuit Modeling using Coupling of Simulators
2006 Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2006This paper describes a methodology developed to perform electro-thermal analysis of integrated circuits. This method is based on the relaxation approach. A circuit simulator and a thermal simulator which is a finite element program are coupled by an interface program.

Coupled electro-thermal-flow model for very long electric arcs
IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 1997A mathematical model that couples the electrical potential in the arc with the resulting thermal and flow fields has been developed to describe the behaviour of the arc plasma in a DC electric arc furnace. The set of conservation equations, along with a potential equation for the electric field, were solved using the PHOENICS software package.

Electro‐Thermal Coupling Field Simulation of Converter Transformer Valve Side Bushings
IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2020In the actual operation, converter transformer valve side bushings are subjected to high voltages and large current loads with large number of harmonics simultaneously. In our previous papers, using the 3‐D electromagnetic‐fluid‐thermal coupling analysis method, the 3‐D temperature distribution of a converter transformer valve side bushing was ...

Fully coupled electro-thermal simulation of a micro pirani gauge
2010 IEEE 5th International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems, 2010In this paper, fully coupled electro-thermal simulation of a micro pirani gauge is presented. The simulation was carried out using CFD-ACE+ software, based on Finite Volume Method (FVM) for multi-disciplinary modeling. Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of silicon was taken into account for solving the joule heating and heat transfer equations.

NUMERICAL PROPERTIES OF A DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN FOMULATION FOR ELECTRO-THERMAL COUPLED PROBLEMS
Proceedings of the VII European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering (ECCOMAS Congress 2016), 2016Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods are attractive tools to integrate several PDEs in engineering sciences, due to their high order accuracy and their high scalability in parallel simulations. The main interest of this work is to derive a constant and stable Discontinuous Galerkin method for two-way electro-thermal coupling analyses.

Coupled electro-thermal Simulations of single event burnout in power diodes
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2005Power diodes may undergo destructive failures when they are struck by high-energy particles during the off state (high reverse-bias voltage). This paper describes the failure mechanism using a coupled electro-thermal model. The specific case of a 3500-V diode is considered and it is shown that the temperatures reached when high voltages are applied are

Partially coupled electro-thermal analysis for accurate prediction of switching devices
Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering 2001. Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.01TH8555), 2002Power hybrid assemblies including IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) are widely used in the application of motor drivers, switching supplies and other power conversion systems. The estimation of the power loss and junction temperature of semiconductor devices has become the major issue with the increase of the current density and high switching ...

Distributed and coupled 2D electro-thermal model of power semiconductor devices
The European Physical Journal Applied Physics, 2014The development of power electronics in the field of transportations (automotive, aeronautics) requires the use of power semiconductor devices providing protection and diagnostic functions. In the case of series protections power semiconductor devices which provide protection may operate in shortcircuit and act as a current limiting device.
