Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study is the construction of the prediction equation of a nano/micro scale hotspot temperature from macroscopic thermal/electrical conditions. The prediction equation might make to be high-precision thermal management for power electronics which introduced next-generation semiconductors. In this study, the method of the construction of the prediction equation was discussed. For this discussion, electro-thermal analysis was adopted to evaluate the nano/micro-scale hotspot temperatures in a SiC power semiconductor die. For the provision of the optimal thermal boundary condition in the electro-thermal analysis, first, the heat transfer in the semiconductor package was simulated using CFD analysis. The thermal boundary condition was applied to the electro-thermal analysis, and the nano/micro scale hotspot temperatures were evaluated in several applied-voltages conditions. The prediction equation was constructed by approximating the hotspot temperatures.
