sured at 0.05 m/s to 0.1 m/s (10 ft./min. to 20 ft./min.);
however, systems in which these power modules may
be used typically generate natural convection airflow
rates of 0.3 m/s (60 ft./min.) due to other heat dissipat-
ing components in the system. The use of Figure 31 is
shown in the following example.

Although the maximum case temperature of the power
modules is 100 °C, you can limit this temperature to a

Heat Transfer Without Heat Sinks
Increasing airflow over the module enhances the heat
transfer via convection. Figure 31 shows the maximum
power that can be dissipated by the module without
exceeding the maximum case temperature versus local
ambient temperature (TA) for natural convection
through 4 m/s (800 ft./min.).
