I am likely to mount a 5W luxeon, running at 3W, on a 30mm diameter disc of aluminium 5mm thick and threaded around the edge to screw into a barrel.
I am unlikley to do this if I cannot get most of the heat out through the thread.
Does anyone know if there is a way to calculate temperature drop across a thread.
Has anyone tried anything similar?
Will filling the thread with zinc oxide paste help much?
Thanks to all
Steve
