The following equations are applied in the dimensioning of the resistors at
stationary load. If more information is required please consult Ohmite. It is
assumed that the air around the resistors is stationary (worst case). See
ohmite.com for more examples.

Ohmite’s new flat core winding
technology allows for wire-
wound heatsinkable resistors
affording a very low profile,
and superior thermal transfer
characteristics when compared
to conventional aluminum
housed wirewound resistors.
Close mounting of heat sensi-
tive components is possible
due to only a slight rise of the
temperature on the aluminum
profile.
No heat sink compound is
required because of large
mounting surface.

This graph shows the maximum wattage rating for each possible resistor
of standard size corresponding to the heat sink temperature. It is as-
sumed that all resistors are equally loaded.
