An efficient numerical technique for calculating thermal spreading resistance
An efficient numerical technique for solving the equations resulting from finite difference analyses of fields governed by Poisson's equation is presented. The method is direct (noniterative)and the computer work required varies with the square of the order of the coefficient matrix. The computational work required varies with the cube of this order for standard inversion techniques, e.g., Gaussian elimination, Jordan, Doolittle, etc.
