Abstract :
The model presented in this work is based on an extension of the constant angle heat spreading, taking into account chip and substrate dimensions, and changing the spreading angle accordingly. This yields to closed form expressions accurate enough for most practical applications. Circular, square, and rectangular geometries have been analyzed and the results compared with Bessel and Fourier series-like solutions
