The aim of this study was to acquire benchmark test data for simulating computational fluid dynamics in thin electronic equipment. Flow in the model of thin electronic equipment was measured by using particle image velocimetry PIV). Dummy components were placed in the model and their configurations altered. The temperature rise of a heat source in the model was also measured and the cooling performance examined. The PIV measurement results revealed the changes in flow with changes in the configuration of the components. Comparison of the experimental results with numerical results showed good agreement in terms of the overall velocity field.
