SIwave-Icepak 工作流程改进
Joule Heating
Thermal Cut-Planes• From ANSYS SIwave:
− Conduction only analysis− Natural convection analysis− Forced convection (fan) analysis− Multi-phase VRM design support− IDF boundary conditions & Heat Sink
creation − Geometry pre-processing for stand-
alone Icepak− Component power (Watts) allocation
during setup− Joule heating power mapping into
Icepak & Mechanical− Cut plane temperature monitoring in
XY-, XZ-, and YZ-planes − Ability to “Open” and perform more
detailed analysis & reporting in stand-alone Icepak!
SIwave-Icepak 工作流程改进Siwave中的Icepak设置
• ANSYS Icepak is solved directly in SIwave for ‘conduction only’ and basic convection models
• After setting up in SIwave, an Icepak project is built and run in the background and the temperatures are post-processed in the SIwave GUI
• Automation of iterative loop until DC convergence
• Filter added to delete all RLC components below a certain power
• Helps reduce number of components in Icepak

• Button added for convection to auto-size the Cabinet in the ANSYS Icepak project
SIwave-Icepak 工作流程改进Siwave中的Icepak设置
• Updated Mesh settings for improved robustness
• Spatial Profile implementation for the power dissipation map has resulted in major improvements in overall turnaround time and robustness
• If available, most generic setups (old Automatic setup in ANSYS Icepak) can be run directly in the SIwave project setup

• Improved usability and robustness– Spatial Profile implementation
(using PCB primitive in Icepak) for the power dissipation map has resulted in major improvements in overall turnaround time and robustness
– Boards can be offset or rotated from their original location
SIwave-Icepak 工作流程改进Icepak的改进
• Support for Multiple Boards– Boards of same setup can
point to the same initial SIwave project
– The macro will launch the initial run, create the individual sitemp files and then queue the individual launches of new SIwave projects
– Each board/substrate must have a separate SIwave project

• Improved Usability– Macro now only requires pointing to the board in Icepak and the project file
for the SIwave project

CTM View in Icepak
• ANSYS Redhawk CTM Import into Icepak
• Back annotation from Icepak to Redhawk− Main Menu/Report/Export/RedHawk Back Annotation− Export the temperature at each tile to RedHawk

MCAD 导入 Icepak 的改进
• ANSYS SpaceClaim is the new de facto CAD Cleanup Tool for all ANSYS products
• Geometry simplification, repair, and modification is significantly streamlined compared to ANSYS DesignModeler
• At v18, several of the “DesignModeler Electronics Utility” capabilities have been incorporated into ANSYS SpaceClaim.
SpaceClaim Icepak
Auto-Identify Simple Icepak Shapes in SpaceClaim• After initial geometry cleanup is complete, the Identify
Objects command can automatically create simple Icepak shapes
Input Geometry Structure Tree Icons are Updated

Icepak Simplification Levels in SpaceClaim
Level 0 Level 1
Level 2 Level 3
• Level 0: Converts geometry to a bounding box prism
• Level 1: Converts geometry to a collection of prisms and cylinders
• Level 2: Converts geometry to a polygonal approximation
• Level 3: Keeps the geometry as-is (use only when needed)
MCAD 导入 Icepak 的改进
Modify Icepak Object Type in SpaceClaim• Sometimes it makes sense to change the object type,
some examples are− Icepak Plate → Source, Wall, Opening− Icepak Block → PCB
Icepak Block Icepak PCB
The geometry remains the same, but the object options
are different in Icepak
Structure tree icon is updatedLevel 2 simplification already done
