How Hardware Startups Solve Thermal Management for High-Power Devices
Thermal management is a silent killer for hardware startups building high-power devices like drone motors, EV chargers, and robotics. In this episode, Lucas and Luna examine why overheating is the top failure mode and how startups can fix it without blowing their BOM. They break down real-world thermal strategies—from heat pipes and vapor chambers to phase-change materials—using examples like a hypothetical 10-kilowatt motor controller prototype. Learn the three thermal design principles every hardware founder should know before first spin, and why simulation tools like OpenFOAM are replacing…
