&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The models after V14.5 are encrypted and cannot be imported in Celsius EC directly.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;To import Icepak model, it is recommended to export the model as ECXML file.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ECXML is neutral format thermal model that can be imported in Celsius EC. To import ECXML file, go to&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Import&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;ribbon and click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;ECXML&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;to import an ECXML file into Celsius EC Solver as a new model, a component or an assembly.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Terminal Design Using Area-Based Power Maps&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In solid extraction flow, you can import area-based power map files to create terminals. For&amp;nbsp;designs with multiple blocks,&amp;nbsp;this capability lets you import an existing power map file&amp;nbsp;instead of&amp;nbsp;manually creating and setting up 2D sheets individually.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For ease of&amp;nbsp;organization, Celsius 3D Workbench lets you rename multiple design parts simultaneously.&amp;nbsp;This is specially useful for complex designs that require managing a large number of parts within an assembly.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

All these applications required a powerful semiconductor device as their computational unit. For a much higher computing performance, besides the circuit design, the temperature field induced by the circuit power, or the thermal stress analysis during manufacturing process, become more and more important due to the geometry and performance requirement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A reliable numerical tool, then plays an important role at the early stage of electronic design. An accurate, faithful prediction and evaluation of the design with appropriate numerical modeling can help designer foresee possible issues and save much more development cost. As the Moore&amp;rsquo;s law stated, semiconductor process technology has been increased in complexity but decreased in size. The limiting space of the device makes the thermal diffusion and stress deformation of&amp;nbsp;each component be the critical issues. The deformation of the component in tiny space will cause huge deflection and undesired conditions of the circuit. Therefore, a numerical tool that focusing on thermal and stress analysis is needed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Moreover, during stress analysis, the tool should contain several features according to the industrial needs. First, the thermal expansion should be taken into account, as well as the deformation due to thermal expansion mismatch. Next, the temperature dependent material properties should be considered. Some common components such as underfill, epoxy, have glass transition at specific range of temperature, such that the mechanical properties change significantly near this range. This highly temperature dependent characteristics is usually used to reduce the deformation or warpage due to coefficient of temperature expansion (CTE) mismatch between essential components.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cadence Celsius Thermal Solver, is the product that provided a solution on multi-physics simulation at system level with performing both thermal and stress analysis. To validate the solver, several cases with analytical solutions and shadow Moire experimental measurement from literature are used to make comparison with numerical simulation result, demonstrating the capability of Cadence Celsius Thermal Solver.&lt;/p&gt;

To do so, click &lt;em&gt;Import Powermap&lt;/em&gt;, navigate to the location of the desired file and click &lt;em&gt;Open&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:480px;max-width:640px;" src="https://community.cadence.com/resized-image/__size/1280x960/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/114/pastedimage1724685469485v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The grid table and the Layout pane are updated with the power values specified in the imported power map file, as shown below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:480px;max-width:640px;" src="https://community.cadence.com/resized-image/__size/1280x960/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/114/pastedimage1724685489710v2.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This workflow combines both electrical and thermal analyses together. Combining electrical and thermal analyses will consider and include both electrical and&amp;nbsp;thermal&amp;nbsp;parameters together, and this leads to highly accurate simulation results. The simulation results include plots for all electrical aspects such as voltage distribution, current density, power density, power loss, IR drop, and via current. Thermal results include plots for temperature rise, heat flux, conductivity, fusion current density, and mean time between failures. You can explore and understand the simulation results in three different ways:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Table View&lt;/strong&gt;: View both electrical and thermal results in the form of tables. Tables include&amp;nbsp;electrical parameters such as VRM and sink voltages, power loss, global via current, specific via tables, and thermal parameters such as dissipation (case top, case side), PCB dissipation, junction (&amp;deg;C), via, plane,&amp;nbsp;wirebond&amp;nbsp;temperature tables, and so on.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2D Distributions&lt;/strong&gt;: 2D distribution&amp;nbsp;helps you&amp;nbsp;understand both electrical and thermal results in 2D plots. This includes electrical distribution plots such as voltage,&amp;nbsp;IR drop, current, current density, power density, power loss, fusion current density, and mean time to failure (MTTF). This also includes&amp;nbsp;thermal distribution plots such as temperature, heat flux, and&amp;nbsp;conductivity plots.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3D Distributions&lt;/strong&gt;: 3D distribution allows you&amp;nbsp;to view the results in 3D&amp;nbsp;color-coded way. Electrical, via, temperature, and heat flux results can be seen here. It allows you to understand the results in a much more realistic way by enabling specific components, animations, 3D structures, and slicing the planes (X,Y,Z).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:480px;max-width:640px;" src="https://community.cadence.com/resized-image/__size/1280x960/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/114/pastedimage1722439622415v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PCB/PKG Transient Thermal Simulation&lt;/strong&gt;: Transient simulation is a highly useful capability of Celsius Thermal Solver. Transient simulation allows you to define transient heat sources which can vary over time. You can get the same type of simulation results (as mentioned above), including all electrical and thermal results. Modern systems require transient analysis to study the electrical and thermal distribution over time. This workflow evaluates how the electrical and thermal parameters evolve&amp;nbsp;at different points in the system over a specified period. Transient analysis plays a major role in thermal sign-off by validating the complete design and checking the reliability, efficiency, and performance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="https://support.cadence.com/apex/ArticleAttachmentPortal?id=a1O3w000009fnB0EAI&amp;amp;pageName=ArticleContent"&gt;RAK&lt;/a&gt; available on support.cadence.com demonstrate a thermal analysis methodology of solving a thermal challenge in a PCB using Celsius FEA and CFD Technology of Cadence. The RAK cover the thermal analysis process that PCB designers or PCB SI/PI engineers can utilize in Celsius 2.5D FEA to come up with a cooling mechanism for PCBs. Then, the same users or the thermal engineers can do a final signoff of an actual design using Celsius CFD simulation. The workflow of Celsius 2.5D FEA-CFD is used in this RAK, letting users do a trade study of cooling the PCB quickly in 2.5D FEA and run an actual CFD simulation, including a chassis and a fan, in the CFD environment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;❑ To perform warpage and residual stress analysis, select the &lt;em&gt;Warpage and Stress&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;option.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to study the thermal behavior of your design when coupled with other factors&amp;nbsp;like electrical and warpage stress, select the &lt;em&gt;Electric &lt;/em&gt;or &lt;em&gt;Warpage and Stress &lt;/em&gt;check boxes. You can select a combination of these check boxes to study the interaction between thermal, electrical, and structural aspects of your design. However, combining electrical and warpage stress analysis is not allowed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Instead of simulating the design multiple times using different values, you can set sweep parameters for the geometries, materials, or boundary conditions in the design, and the tool will automatically create multiple cases and run sweep simulation for the&amp;nbsp;generated cases.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The boundary conditions that support parameterization are: Static Power and Temperature, Heat Transfer Coefficient (HTC), and VRM/Sink Patch.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
