ASME K-16 Committee on Heat Transfer in Electronic Equipment

The ASME K-16 Committee is a joint committee of the Heat Transfer Division (HTD) and the Electrical and Electronic Packaging Division (EEPD). It is the focal point for ASME activities in the area of Thermal Management of Electronics. The committee strives to provide leadership in the dissemination of technical information, the transfer of technology, and the interchange of ideas between industrial, academic and government institutions involved in the science and the pedagogy of heat transfer and thermal management in electronics packaging. As a joint committee, the K-16 committee forms a bridge between the art and science of heat transfer in electronics as represented by the HTD and the application of that heat transfer science to thermal engineering of electronic equipment as represented by the EEPD.
