The aim of this work is the thermal modeling of a crate hosting boards with Associative Memories (AMs) designed for the Fast Tracker Trigger (FTK) system of the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The crate is located in a rack where the cooling can be done with forced air, then the heat transfer is coupled to a non-isothermal fluid flow. Here COMSOL Multiphysics® has been used to investigate if a simplified geometry can give enough accurate results to well design the cooling system of the crate. This will enable the use of COMSOL also to well size the coolers of the rack.

The crate is located in a rack where the cooling can be done with forced air, then the heat transfer is coupled to a non-isothermal fluid flow. Here COMSOL Multiphysics® has been used to investigate if a simplified geometry can give enough accurate results to well design the cooling system of the crate. This will enable the use of COMSOL also to well size the coolers of the rack.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
