Abstract In this paper, a numerical model investigating the impact of gasket thermal quality on the reduction in the thermal contact resistance (TCR) between
two solids is presented and validated analytically. The model proposed is a 2D steady state model. The thermal conductivity of the solid materials
ranges from 20 to 390 W/m·K, and the gasket thermal conductivity ranges from 0.16W/m·K (TC of rubber) to and 5W/m·K (TC of thermal paste). As
expected, the results obtained clearly confirm that the gasket significantly improves the heat transfer between two solids in contact, and in particular
that the More >
