Numerical thermal analysis and optimization of multi-chip LED module using response surface methodology and genetic algorithm

In this paper, the heat transfer performance of the multi-chip (MC) LED module is investigated numerically by using a general analytical solution. The configuration of the module is optimized with genetic algorithm (GA) combined with a response surface methodology. The space between chips, the thickness of the metal core printed circuit board...

Equilibrium running principle analysis on an adaptive cycle engine

As an evolutional concept of variable cycle engine, the adaptive cycle engine draws widely attention with high expectations. It combines a variable geometry schedule and component matching principles to demonstrate its advantages such as avoiding severe inlet spillage drag and the wide variable cycle characteristics. Thus, this paper aims at...

Nitrogen Dioxide Gas Sensor Based on Monolayer SnS: A First-Principle Study

The sensing behavior of monolayer tin sulfide (SnS) for four gas molecules (NH₃, NO₂, CO, and H₂O) are studied by the first-principle calculation based on density-functional theory. We calculate adsorption energy, adsorption distance, and Hirshfeld charge to estimate the adsorption ability of monolayer SnS for...

Overdriving reliability of chip scale packaged LEDs: Quantitatively analyzing the impact of component

The objective of this study is to quantitatively evaluate the impacts of LED components on the overdriving reliability of high power white LED chip scale packages (CSPs). The reliability tests under room temperature are conducted over 1000 h in this study on CSP LEDs with overdriving currents. A novel method is proposed to investigate the...
