Novel MOR approach for extracting dynamic compact thermal models with massive numbers of heat sources

Abstract

A novel Model Order Reduction approach for the construction of Dynamic Compact Thermal Models is presented. With respect to previous approaches, this methodology allows reducing the complexity of the constructed models, from quadratically to linearly dependent on the number of independent heat sources. In such a way, the approach allows constructing Dynamic Compact Thermal Models practically without limitations on the number of heat sources. The proposed methodology is validated through the application to two state-of-the-art electronic systems.
