Heat produced by thin film resistive heater.

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenges of calculating the maximum temperature produced by thin film resistive heaters, specifically those made from doped tin oxide on various substrates. A precise formula for temperature rise based on power, voltage, and resistor size is not readily available, indicating the complexity of the problem. Participants suggest consulting the book "Cooling of Electronic Equipment" by Allan W. Scott for further insights. The conversation highlights the need for a deeper understanding of thermal dynamics in heater design. Accurate temperature predictions remain a significant challenge in the field of thin film heating technology.

Hi guys. I am new to this forum and need some help in solving some problems.
My company produce thin film heater( doped tin oxide deposited on a substrate such as glass ceramic, beryllium oxide, aluminium nitride or alumina and some others). I need a formula for calculating within a few degrees the maximum temperature produced from any design given the power, voltage and size of the resistor.

Thanks

You should get the book Cooling of Electronic Equipment by Allan W. Scott.
There is no simple formula to calculate temperature rise.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
