Abstract
The presence of a badly shielded Universal Serial Bus (USB) female socket and poor contact between them continuously makes an impact on the life of the connector. Uneven heating due to loose contact is also responsible for the failure of the shield. The main motto behind analyzing this system is to check what the effect of temperature rise is, and how to minimize the rating problems that occurred inside the USB holder. The analysis is done for temperature rise at the USB by using steady-state thermal analysis using ANSYS 18.1. A real-type prototype is manufactured with the help of a 3D printing machine for which a 3D model is developed using FUSION 360 software. This paper investigates the failure due to the heating of the USB shield and finds the crucial areas where the redesign is needed. The deviation in results by comparing calculated values with FEM values is less than 10% and is found to be acceptable.
