The target of this research is to study the performance of air cooling of
an electronic cabinet including a heat sources (electronic circuit boards)
by using axial fan. The cabinet is cooled from the top by one port while
the lower and side walls temperature is kept constant. The effect of inlet
and outlet air ports positions in the cabinet is considered. In this work,
Icepak4.2.8 package is used in the numerical study. The steady of the
3D incompressible viscous flow problem is solved by using the Icepak
package. Various air-cooling geometries are applied. Specific conditions
for each case are defined, and the computational fluid dynamics is
provided for three different groups containing six cases of local inlet and
outlet ports. The results are performed for cooling effect factor (CEF).
