00.Overview
The cooling by forced convection (steady-state analysis) is solved in this tutorial.
A heat source is placed on a substrate, and there is a forced air flow for cooling in parallel to the substrate.

Model
The substrate (VOL1) , the heat source (VOL2), and the fluid (Air) are solid-body boxes. The quantity of emitted heat is defined in the body attribute.
The fluid is defined in the material property. The flow velocity is given at the input opening and the velocity potential is given at the output opening.
The unit is [mm].
The dimensions for the substrate and the heat source are as follows:
