Is there a simple energy simulation for non-specialized use?

hi
i want to make a simple model for a light bulb for a project i am not "Mechanical and energy" specialized i just need it to avoid any thermal issues.

thank you.

Welcome to the PF.

When you say "module", do you mean "model"? You want to make a thermal model of a light bulb, running at different input voltages and output powers?

i'm sorry about that :) yes i meant model running at different input voltages and output powers

Ah, good. I just did a google search on Thermal Model of a Light Bulb, and got lots of good hits. Maybe have a look through the hit list to see if you find what you are looking for...

Consider using LED bulb as they emit far less heat.
