Abstract
The attachment of electronic components to printed circuit boards using solder material is a complex process. This paper presents a novel modeling methodology, which integrates the governing physics taking place. Multiphysics modeling technology, imbedded into the simulation tool—PHYSICA is used to simulate fluid flow, heat transfer, solidification, and stress evolution in an integrated manner. Results using this code are presented, detailing the mechanical response of two solder materials as they cool, solidify and then deform. The shape that a solder joint takes upon melting is predicted using the SURFACE EVOLVER code. Details are given on how these predictions can be used in the PHYSICA code to provide a modeling route by which the shape, solidification history, and resulting stress profiles can be predicted.
