Abstract:
A support apparatus for a component is provided and includes a periphery entirely disposable within a footprint of the component on a surface of a substrate, a first portion having a first surface adhesively connectable to the component, a second portion having a second surface disposable to contact the surface of the substrate in discrete sectors and defining an aperture through which leads are extendable from the component and through the substrate, and vents extending between the discrete sectors from the aperture to the periphery, and bosses disposed to protrude from the second surface and into through-holes defined in the substrate.
Abstract:
An air-cooled heat exchanger 102 includes a housing 201 having an intake 202 for air flowing through the housing and at least one outlet 203, 204 for the air flowing through the housing. A set of segmented fins 206 extend within the housing between the intake and the at least one outlet, configured to direct the air flowing through the housing. Each segment of the segmented fins has a length selected based on a throw distance for an environmental protection coating process employed to apply an environmental protection coating to surfaces of the fin segments. Access ports 207 extend through at least one wall of the housing at locations allowing connection, when the access ports are unblocked, of electrical conductors used in the environmental protection coating process to both ends of each of the fin segments. Access port covers 401 block each of the access ports during operation of the air-cooled heat exchanger.
