We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

  Is it possible to assign thermal resistance for air/ambient for ICs in Icepak? If so, could someone please guide me on how to do this? Additionally, is it necessary to assign thermal resistance for air/ambient in a natural convection analysis?

  In natural convection, there is no need to assign thermal resistance for case to ambient. If you do want to do that, please add a plate object on the case of IC. For conduction only simulation, please use Wall object on the case of IC. Thanks.
