No License Needed
Most design software requires costly licenses. The Aavid Genie does not have any licensing fees and can be used at any time.
Everyday Thermals: Boiling Pot of Water
Thermals affect us everyday, even without us knowing. Heat transfer is just a form of energy transfer. We’re busy people and move energy around all the time. When you start thinking thermally, you begin to recognize heat flow in the things you do. Something we do all the time is eat. And to eat we need
Cool Artificial Intelligence
Cool Artificial Intelligence is Making a Big Splash this Summer It’s hard to ignore all of the attention diverted towards Artificial Intelligence (AI) recently. But AI isn’t a new thing. IBM’s Watson whipped two Jeopardy champions a decade ago. Deep Blue, the chess-playing computer, beat the reigning world chess champion 20 years ago (already?!). Those

Heat Source Placement in Relation to Your Heat Sink
Orienting Ourselves and our Heat Source Placement In Aavid Genie, you have the ability to move and add devices to your heat sink before simulating the thermal performance. We have a graphical user interface (GUI) for heat source placement on your heat sink, but an important question is: how is my heat sink oriented? Take that
Language Selection in Aavid Genie
Making Thermal Design Speak Your Language While physics and math are constant between cultures globally, the language we use to discuss these concepts aren’t always the same. That’s why Aavid Genie has learned a few more languages. The Genie wants to to make thermal management and design more accessible and adding a few more languages
Powering Up Wearable Tech: Stretchable, Rechargeable Batteries
Enabling Wearable Tech Wearable technology is increasing in popularity, which is why we see more researchers tackling the challenges that are associated with them. We see flexible circuits, flexible LED screens, but we need something to power all these gizmos. One prerequisite of the classification of “wearable tech” is “mobile.” That means these devices can’t
Ducted Versus Bypass Flow
Flow Types in Aavid Genie: Ducted Versus Bypass Flow Aavid Genie has a few different options when it comes to defining flow for your thermal simulation. Genie defaults to having ducted flow for all three flow types in the Flow Definition portion of a project. One flow type, standard fixed flow, has the option of
