The
WT-3100 can be used for the following applications:
Heat Sink Testing-
Characterize a variety of heat sink sizes for natural and forced
convection cooling.
Heat Sink Comparison-
Test two heat sinks side by side and compare their thermal
performance in the same environment.
Component Testing-
Test vehicle for component characterization.
PCB Testing-
Test actual or simulated PCBs for thermal and flow distribution.
Flow Visualization-
Observe flow distribution when a PCB or test object is placed in the
tunnel by smoke or buoyant bubbles through the all Plexi-
glass™ test section.
Variable Speed-
Change the flow rate by controlling the fan RPM.
Flow Direction-
Test the effect of flow direction (fan failure simulation) by controlling the
fans (either variable RPM or on/off).
Quick Access-
Quickly change the test specimen through the side panel.
Sensor Port-
Measure pressure, velocity and temperature through the ports at the entrance
and exhaust of the test section.
