Banish PCB Thermal Problems with State-of-the-art Thermal SimulationTom Gregory
There are so many things to consider when designing a PCB that oversights happen easily. One crucial area that can be overlooked is the thermal design. We've all heard about electronics devices overheating…
As if that's not enough, design requirements are often contradictory. So, the best PCB layout for signal integrity is often the worst for thermal design. In the end, getting a good design that also boasts robust thermal performance is a tough ask.
But we're here to help. Our award-winning thermal simulation tool – 6SigmaET – gives you a unique visual representation of the temperature and airflow. And that allows you to optimize your designs so that they are 'right' before you even consider physical prototyping.
This presentation is intended for designers with little or no thermal design experience: we'll teach you how to simply and easily integrate thermal simulation in to your design process. We'll also demonstrate how 6SigmaET reduces the risk of design mistakes, helps you push the boundaries of your own design skills, enables innovation, and saves your company both time and money.

Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.
NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

Starting up SolidWorks Electrical for a new project in
domestic installations.
In this exercise you will get to know the basics of SolidWorks Electrical. We start with a first project, a part of a
domestic installation.
A work plan: When you’re going to design a product in SolidWorks Electrical, a good habit is to
make a work plan: how are you going to do this? That’s why you must examine
the exercise carefully.
First, you will make this exercise exactly like you would do on the board in the
electro workshop. For a project, it means you’ll make the following steps:
1. First, take a mounting board of 800 x 1200 mm.
2. Place with the aid of Solid Works:
a. The flush mounting box in the right places
b. The PVC pipes end the cable gutter with the right dimensions and
shapes in place
c. The wall mounting clips in the right place
d. The energy saving lamp and the sphere light in the right place
• Make use of the assignment drawing that contains all necessary
information.

73 Congratulations! You have
now made your first
electric scheme with the
aid of SolidWorks Electrical
and SolidWorks.
What are the most
important lessons you
have learned?
In this very first exercise you got acquainted with SolidWorks Schematics
and SolidWorks Electrical. You’ve learned a few things you should remember
well:
• Functionality of SolidWorks Electrical is under the right mouse button.
By means of extruding you can add or remove material.
• All properties are easily changed. In the next tutorials we will show you
more complicated changes.
Could you have made
this scheme in a
different sequence?
Yes indeed. Almost every scheme you make in SolidWorks Electrical can also
be made in a different sequence. Most of the time, there is no good or bad
way to do it.
For example, you could have drawn the wires first, and placed the symbols
in later. In the next exercise we will take a closer look at this.

SolidWorks works in education.
3D CAD is essential in todays engineering world.
Whether your branch is Technical engineering, Metal,
Metal-Electro, Industrial product design or automotive
technology, 3D CAD is the tool for the designer and
engineer of today.
Of all 3D CAD programs on the market today,
SolidWorks is most used in the Benelux. This is due
to a unique combination of properties: it’s user
friendliness, large field of applications, and an
excellent support. In yearly updates, many whished
from the industry are implemented to expand
functionality continuously and to simultaneously
optimize functions, which are already present.
Education
Many educational institutions at all levels already
chose SolidWorks as their main tool for 3D CAD
modeling. Why?
For a teacher, the choice for SolidWorks means the
choice for user-friendly software, which is easily learnt
by students. That is why SolidWorks is very well
suited for problem-orientated education. For various
levels of education, free tutorials are available, such
as a series for lower and mid level technical education
where step-by-step, the basics of SolidWorks are
educated. But also tutorials for advanced modeling
are available, like for example modeling of double
curved surfaces. All tutorials are free and can be
downloaded at www.solidworks.com Do not hesitate
to point out these free possibilities of SolidWorks to
your colleagues and students.
For a student, learning SolidWorks is a very pleasant
and challenging experience. By using SolidWorks,
engineering becomes more understandable, which
makes working on assignments more realistic and
more fun. Besides that, students know that job
opportunities rise when they can add SolidWorks
skills, the most sought after CAD skills in the industry,
tot their resume. To further simplify the use of
SolidWorks, a Student Kit is available. If your school
or university uses SolidWorks, students can download
this for free! The Student Kit is a full version of
SolidWorks, and may only be used for educational
purposes. The required data for obtaining the student
kit can be obtained by your teacher. Do not hesitate to
attend teachers and students to the free material
provided by SolidWorks on their website!
For the ICT department, the choice for SolidWorks
means that purchasing new computer systems can be
postponed a little, because SolidWorks has relatively
low hardware demands. Installation and maintaining
SolidWorks in a network environment is easy with of
the use of network licences. If any problem may
occur, a qualified helpdesk is available who will help
you solve your problem quickly.
Certification
If you have sufficient knowledge of SolidWorks, you
can take part in the CSWA exam. CSWA stands for
Certified SolidWorks Associate. When you passed
this exam, you will receive a certificate that states you
have sufficient knowledge of SolidWorks. This is very
usefull when soliciting for a job or internship. After
finishing these tutorials for lower and mid level
technical education, you will have sufficient
knowledge to take the CSWA exam.
Finally
For a long time, SolidWorks has committed itself to
education. By supporting teachers where possible: by
providing educational material, by updating the
software on a yearly basis, and by supplying the
students with the Student Kit. The choice for
SolidWorks is a choice for the future. The future of
education that can rely on wide support and the future
of students who want to get the best chances after
their education.
