Conclusion&Suggestions

According to simulation analysis, the heat flux density in a closed electronic device system is relatively high, which makes it difficult to effectively exchange heat with the outside world, and the heat cannot be quickly dissipated outside the system, resulting in an increase in the internal temperature of the device; After adding ventilation holes to the equipment, the temperature inside and on the surface of the equipment decreased significantly.
