Dear Members,

As mechanical engineer support I have to design the Thermal design of custom built enclosure of electronic power supply box.

FR4 Grade PCB on which the power supply circuit has been design and there is a heat spread on PCB is about 18 watts evenly.
This PCB is mounted in the aluminum enclosure of size 210 x 240 mm, The PCB mounted through 14 studs of each 10 mm Sq. and 8 mm height.
I need to know how proceed for the thermal heat dissipation design. what will be the FR4 grade PCB thermal resistance and that of aluminum box.

Can any one help me out and give some guidance to proceed on this design?

Thanks,

Bharat
