Technical Consultancy, Feasibility and Design

PSL provide a comprehensive technical consultancy service which incorporates both Power Stack Design and Thermal Management Optimisation.

Our consultancy service includes concept assimilation, feasibility, 3D CAD design, prototyping, testing, reporting, and certification. We can provide consultancy for the manufacture of Power Semiconductor Stack specifications together with optimal thermal management solutions – or we can provide design and technical advice on bespoke heatsinks and cooling plates to suit your unique electronics cooling requirements.

Thermal Simulation and Thermal Analysis

As power density requirements continue to increase, so does the demand for high performance optimised thermal solutions.

By utilising computational fluid dynamics (CFD), our engineers can accurately predict and optimise the thermal performance of a design well in advance of the manufacturing process. This enables PSL to provide highly efficient bespoke thermal management systems whilst remaining confident that the design is also fit for purpose.

PSL has experience and expertise in designing & analysing a wide range thermal management systems utilising:

  • Forced and Natural Convection
  • Radiative Cooling
  • Liquid Cooling
  • Steady-State & Transient Behaviour
  • Heat Pipes and Vapour Chambers

Precision CNC/VMC Machining & Stirweld Friction Stir Welding

To enable us to provide the very best service in the design and manufacture of bespoke heatsinks and cooling plates, our Dunstable factory comprises 9x CNC Vertical Machining Centres, working on a 16 hour/day 2 shift system, supported with Faro Edge 14000 portable measurement.

To support our heatsink manufacturing capability, we can produce high performance fully-welded specialist coolers – using the Stirweld Friction Stir Welding system – Stirweld are manufacturers of the world’s most versatile & cost-effective Friction Stir Welding equipment. We are proud to be associated with Stirweld, so please visit their website directly for further details on their excellent Friction Stir Welding system.

All sizes and designs of heatsinks and cooling plates up to 1250mm x  750mm footprint can be manufactured, including any configuration of embedded cooling tubes.

In-house 3D CAD Design, thermal simulation, factory testing, and leak & pressure testing services are available to support our comprehensive CNC manufacturing capabilities.
