The software is fast, fits our thermal modeling needs perfectly, and experimental testing in our laboratories has proven that the simulation results predict component temperatures with accuracy”.Įngelberts continued, “We are very satisfied with the excellent service from the Future Facilities team, and with 6SigmaET which helps us better serve our customer need.
A comprehensive standalone tool, 6SigmaET doesn't need additional MCAD software for data entry, which means it is especially straightforward to use. “6SigmaET is capable of analyzing all kinds of issues and features within the electronics cooling field including non-rectangular shapes, like those found in LED light fixtures. "At ATS-Europe BV, we are very pleased with the capabilities of the 6SigmaET CFD software module,” said Norbert Engelberts, Director, ATS-Europe, BV. The Future Facilities’ Case Study released today describes how Advanced Thermal Solutions-Europe, BV (ATS-Europe, BV), a leading European design consultant, used Future Facilities’ 6SigmaET software to model lamp performance while simultaneously reducing heat sink cost, selecting the optimal high-performance coating for the LED’s heat sink, and matching the LED to the correct circuit board. Can designing the new generation of LEDs using simulation reduce their cost and improve their performance? The answer is, yes! Thermal simulation can solve electronic device design problems. The market wants smaller, brighter and more reliable lighting devices. Electronics design engineers face complex tradeoffs when they design small high-power-consuming lighting devices like LEDs.
