  • Publication number: 20090012750
    Abstract: A chassis surface temperature estimate apparatus capable of quickly and easily estimating a chassis surface temperature without obtaining a parameter for each component through actual measurement for thermal design is provided. A thermal analysis execution section (6) executes a thermal analysis in units of heat-generation groups each including at least one heat-generating component, and obtains the chassis surface temperatures caused by respective heat-generation groups. A storage section (8) stores the chassis surface temperatures obtained for respective heat-generation group. A synthesis section (7) firstly reads the chassis surface temperature data from the storage section (8), and converts the chassis surface temperatures caused by respective heat-generation groups to radiation amounts. Secondly, the synthesis section (7) calculates a sum of radiation amounts by adding the radiation amounts obtained through the conversion.
