Intel provides thermal simulation models of the Intel 5000 Series chipset MCH and
associated user’s guides to aid system designers in simulating, analyzing, and
optimizing their thermal solutions in an integrated, system-level environment. The
models are for use with the commercially available Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD)-based thermal analysis tool FLOTHERM* (version 5.1 or higher) by Flomerics,
Inc. Contact your Intel field sales representative to order the thermal models and
user’s guides.
