Abstract— As the electronic equipment is powered, heat is being developed and in increase of temperature in components. Overheating can shorten the life expectancy of costly electrical components or lead to catastrophic failure. For safe functioning of component, the allowable temperature must be provided and if the temperature exceeds these limits, the component fails. In this paper, thermal design of an enclosure for ship's radar frame and its assembly is taken up and ensuring component temperature within the limits. For CFD thermal analysis purpose ANSYS 11 has been used.

Index Terms— ANSYS, Design, Homodyne, Radar Frame, Temperature, etc
