Abstract: The study proves that the conformal cooling channel can overcome the disadvantages of the conventional cooling channel resulting from the limitation in complicated shape. The simulation analyses of the fragrance lamp with different cooling layouts show that the conformal cooling channel can offer a more uniform heat dissipation, lower volume shrinkage and shorter time to freeze than the conventional channel, which indicates significantly improvements in productivity and quality. © 2011 Shanghai Jiaotong University and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
