THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS FORMULA
Tc-Ta = /\ =Trca Pout (1/n-1) where,
Trca = Thermal Resistance of case to air
Pout = Output Power in Watts
n = Efficiency
Tc = Case Temperature in °C
Ta = Ambient Temperature in °C

EXAMPLE 1:

A DC3-24S module has an efficiency of 84%. What is the maximum ambient temperature if 50 Watts of power is needed?

A) In free air:
From Table1: Trca = 7.9
Using relation (2)
/\T=7.9(50)[(1/.84)-1]=75.2°C
Tc-Ta=75.2°C
85-Ta=75.2°C
Ta=9.8°C Maximum

B) In free air with heatsink HSDC3:
Trca=3.9
/\T=3.9(50)[(1/.84)-1]=37.1°C
Ta = 85-37.3=47.9°C

C) With 400 LFM of air flow with no heatsink:
Trca=1.5
/\T=1.5(50)[(1/.84)-1]=14.3°C
Ta=85-14.3=70.7°C

 

EXAMPLE 2:

What would be the maximum output power for a DC3-24S module at an ambient temperature of 50°C with an efficiency of 84%?

A) If the module is used in free air:
From Table 1: Trca=7.9
Using Relation (2)
85-50=7.9 Pout[1/.84-1]
Pout = 35/[7.9(.19)]=23W

B) If the module is used with heatsink HSDC3 and with free air:
Trca=3.9
Pout = 35/[3.9(.19)] = 47.2W

C) If the module is used in an area with forced air at 400 LFM with no heatsink:
Trca=2.5

Pout = 35/[2.5(.19)] = 50W Maximum Output
