In this study, cooling of small form factor computer is numerically investigated.
The numerical model is analyzed using a commercial computational fluid
dynamics software Icepak&trade / . The effects of grid selection, discretization
schemes and turbulence models are discussed and presented. In addition,
physical phenomena like recirculation and relaminarization are addressed briefly.
For a comparison with the computational fluid dynamics results, an experiment
is conducted and some temperature measurements are obtained from critical
locations inside the chassis.The computational results were found to be in good
agreement with the experimental ones.
