Electromechanical Systems Modeling

Thermal performance modeling for an electrical enclosure: CAD parameterization, CFD-based natural convection analysis, and iterative design evaluation across operating constraints.

Work Done

  • Built a parameter-driven enclosure model to control geometry changes (louvers, cutouts, thickness, and key dimensions).
  • Set up CFD workflows to estimate temperature rise and airflow patterns under natural convection assumptions.
  • Ran comparisons across design variants and operating inputs to support tradeoffs and decision-making.
  • Packaged results into presentation-ready figures, tables, and a clear narrative for stakeholder review.

Project Context

Focus: enclosure thermal management and temperature rise under realistic constraints. Emphasis on disciplined modeling: controlling inputs, documenting assumptions, and comparing variants consistently.
