This paper researches a design process of a heatsink in the power module box of the 3D Radar system. Studying the theory of heat transfer across parallel plate-fins of the heatsink to optimize the geometric parameters. The power module boxes are designed based on those optimum geometric parameters. In the next step, the design model is used to simulate temperature under working conditions by using Solidworks simulation software. The design model is then trial manufactured for testing before moving to the mass production.
