Description
Designed and prototyped a fully custom PC case as a replacement for an aging commercial chassis. The design emphasized portability, modularity, and optimized cooling performance, leveraging aluminum extrusions for structural support and ABS/ASA 3D-printed components for thermal resilience. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations in SolidWorks were used to validate airflow configurations prior to fabrication.
- Designed a portable, modular PC case from the ground up with a focus on airflow and thermal management.
- Utilized aluminum extrusions for the frame and ABS/ASA 3D-printed parts to balance strength, weight, and heat resistance.
- Performed SolidWorks CFD simulations to identify and confirm optimal cooling configurations.
- Iterated design for manufacturability and assembly, preparing for physical build and testing.
