Revisiting the optimal shape of cooling fins: A one-dimensional analytical study using optimality criteria
Joe Alexandersen, Ole Sigmund
This paper revisits the optimal shape problem of a single cooling fin using a one-dimensional heat conduction equation with convection boundary conditions. Firstly, in contrast to…

A "poor man's" approach for high-resolution three-dimensional topology optimization of natural convection problems
Nicolo Pollini, Ole Sigmund, Casper Schousboe Andreasen +1
This paper treats topology optimization of natural convection problems. A simplified model is suggested to describe the flow of an incompressible fluid in steady state conditions,…

A "poor man's" approach to topology optimization of natural convection problems
Janus Asmussen, Joe Alexandersen, Ole Sigmund +1
Topology optimization of natural convection problems is computationally expensive, due to the large number of degrees of freedom (DOFs) in the model and its two-way coupled nature.…
