Figure A-4 Thermal model of a free-standing power package.

Power packages not mounted on a suitable heatsink can expect to dissipate less than five percent of the maximum specified power capability of the package. So 100 W devices will only dissipate 1 to 2W when they are free standing. This also includes using the PC board copper plating as a heatsink. Thus, great discretion should be used when cost is the most important issue. 

As one can see by the typical values of the junction-to-air thermal resistance, it doesn t require much power to result in very high junction temperatures. If the designer can possible mount the power package on any metal surface to increase the radiating surface area, it will only improve the junction temperature. 

The cleanliness of the products of combustion is such that the use of heat-recovery equipment is possible without the risk of corrosion. This has led to the development of combined heat and power packages where the overall efficiency is high.

The first of these applications, power production, may be further classified according to three specific functions central-station power, package power, and mobile power. Central-station-power applications of nuclear reactors refers to the production of power for large municipal or industrial areas. Package-power applications, however, refer to power production for limited facilities. In this classification, one might include power plants for areas in unusual climatic conditions, advanced bases, or small, isolated establishments. The application of nuclear reactors to power mobile units can conceivably include any device which is designed for terrestrial operation or, for that matter, space craft as well. The possibilities in this area of application are as yet hardly known. 

The TCE linearly increases with temperature up to about 350°C, and then begins to decrease. At this temperature, the aluminum matrix softens and the SiC matrix dominates. This factor is an important feature for power packaging. 

Manufacturing cost a variable cost for each product was found by collecting raw material, labour, power, packaging and waste costs. Manufacturing overheads (fixed costs) were allocated on the basis of direct labour. Because of the small difference in manufacturing methods, the manufacturing costs for the two products were similar. They were 2,107 for A and 2,032 for B.
