CoCoE estimates conductance between two surfaces through software. It calculates resistance and conductance.
CoCoE has been written in Perl and utilizes a self-contained SQLite database as well as Tk for the user interface. This allows for a user-friendly experience and easy navigation.
The latest release of CoCoE includes several new entries added to the database, as well as numerous fixes to existing entries. These updates have resulted in much more accurate correlations.
One of the most significant updates in this release is the addition of a status bar in the CoCoE window. The status bar displays helpful messages, providing even more assistance to the user.
CoCoE now also features improved input methods for contact pressure. The program now asks users whether they prefer to input contact pressure directly or via load and area.
Furthermore, users can now easily input as many contact pressures as desired, without having to start over with each new value. This saves time and reduces frustration.
Overall, the latest release of CoCoE offers many valuable improvements and continues to be a valuable tool for those dealing with heat transfer via contact in physical systems design and analysis.
