In this study, the junction temperature (Tj) and thermal resistance (Rth) of five high-power multi-chip COB (chip-on-board) LED packages with different chip spacings were compared. The actual Tjwas measured by an IR camera and compared with the simulation results from a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. In addition, the effects of heat slugs with different thermal conductivity, heat sinks of various thicknesses, chip size, and forced convection cooling on the Tjand Rthof high-powered LED components were investigated. The experimental results show that smaller chip spacing resulted in higher Tjand Rth. The heat dissipation performance can be improved by using a heat slug with a high thermal conductivity; and increasing the thickness of the heat sink, or employing forced convection cooling.

Recent developments in polymer additives and formulations have made available resins that have thermal conductivity that is one to two orders of magnitude higher than that of typical engineering polymers. Such polymers can be potentially used for designing heat sinks. There are two primary advantages of polymer heat sinks: ability to form shapes that may not be feasible with metal and flexibility that allows the heat sink to be bent in various shapes. This paper presents results from a study that was conducted to determine the suitability of commercially available Flexible Heat Sink Material for use in cooling high power LED’s.
