Thermal separation of electronic control chassis heatsink fins

摘要

An electronics chassis, 12, for containing and supporting electronic components having different operating temperatures includes a plurality of thermally conductive walls forming an enclosure. There is a first heat dissipator, 30, in at least one of the walls having a external heat dissipator and a second heat dissipator, 32, in at least one of the walls having a external heat dissipator. There is a thermal isolator, 34, positioned in at least one of the walls to provide thermal isolation between the heat dissipators, and the thermal isolator includes a thermally insulating material.
