Thermal analysis of LED lamp with LTCC‐COB package

Abstract

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to investigate the thermal behaviors of high power LED packages to enhance the thermal performances of low temperature co-fired ceramic chip on board (LTCC-COB) package. Thermal analysis demonstrated an improved LTCC-COB package design that is comparable to a metal lead frame package with low thermal resistance. Design/methodology/approach -The LED device developed in this study is a LTCC package mounted directly on the metal PCB. A numerical simulation was performed to investigate the thermal characteristics of the LED module using the finite volume method, which is embedded in commercial software (Fluent V.6.3). Thermal resistance and temperature measurement validate the simulated results.Findings -The effect of the thickness of the die attach material on the thermal resistance was dominant due to low thermal conductivity, and the junction temperature decreased significantly with slight increases in thermal conductivity, especially when the value was less than 5 W/mK. The results reveal that the thermal resistance of MCPCB is about 49 per cent-58 per cent of the junction to board thermal resistance. The thermal model results showed good agreement with experimental results. Originality/value -The developed model overcomes the large thermal resistance of a conventional LTCC package for high power LED module. The extensive results have demonstrated an improved thermal design, optimal dimensions of each component and boundary conditions for high power LTCC-COB type package.

Comparative study on the thermal performance of surface‐mounted devices light‐emitting diode packaging with poly(1,4‐cyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate) and epoxy moulding compound frames

“…To ensure the generality of the measurement data, six LED samples were randomly selected for each type of lead frame. The phosphor attached to the surface of the chip was thin, the effect of the phosphor layer and bonding wires was not considered in modelling, and the detailed structure of epilayers in the chip was simplified [19–21].…”

Accurate LBM appraising of pin-fins heat dissipation performance and entropy generation in enclosures as application to power electronic cooling

“…The problem of heat dissipation from LED lamps is reduced to the thermal management of a heat pin fin problem in a chosen configuration. The theme was met and remains with continuous interest and is the subject of several numerical and experimental works (Huang et al , 2019; Jain et al , 2016; Li and Byon, 2015; Effendi and Kim, 2017; Feng et al , 2018; Ben Salah and Ben Hamida, 2018; Keun Lee et al , 2013).…”
