Abstract :
In this paper, the influence of voids on thermal conductivity of solder joints is analyzed using the finite element method. The conclusions come that: for single-void case, with the size of void increasing, the influence of void on thermal conductivity growing, void near the heat source has a greater influence than that far away. Then, the situation of multi-voids get similar results, but the temperature distribution of solder joints presents the comprehensive function of the two factors, particularly, the voids far away from the heat source may have little influence on the thermal conducting performance.
