  • Abstract
    The electrical method of measuring thermal resistance is examined in detail and compared with results obtained using infra-red thermal imaging. It is shown that the measurement of thermal resistance using electrical methods can be very inaccurate, particularly when used to measure multicell structures or very large area devices.
