  • Abstract
    Due to the unique operational environment, higher packaging density, and increasing power consumption, there is a growing cooling need for electronic equipment on board military helicopters. However, conduction remains to be the main cooling mechanism for electronic components in these applications. This paper attempts to address current thermal solutions and challenges along with system, mechanical, and reliability constraints. Future thermal management trends and needs are also discussed
