EN The supply of energy with the correct parameters to electrical appliances is possible with the use of energy converters. When a direct current is required, rectifier bridges are needed. These can be made using rectifier diodes. The problem of excessive junction temperatures in power diodes, which are used to build rectifier bridges and power converters, was recognized. For this reason, research work was carried out to create a model of a rectifier diode placed on a heat sink and to analyze the heat dissipation from the junction of this diode under forced convection conditions. The results obtained from the simulation work were compared with the results of thermographic temperature measurements. The boundary conditions chosen for the simulation work are presented. A method is also presented that determined the convection coefficient under forced convection conditions. The difference between the simulation results and the results of the thermographic measurements was found to be 0.1 °C, depending on the power dissipated at the junction and the air velocity around the diode.
