Abstract

In this paper analyzes the thermal characteristics of light emitting diode (LED) streetlight module which has serious problems of heat dissipation. Firstly, Finite Element Method (FEM) combined with the heat transfer theory was utilized to calculate the thermal performance of an LED streetlight module by the ANSYS. Then, the thermal behavior of LED streetlight module is investigated by experimental measurements which are used for verifying the feasibility of the simulation. Finally, the structure of the heat sink module was optimized by the Taguchi experimental design method, and some suggestions were proposed.
