An enclosure includes an explosion resistant housing having a back wall, a top, a first side, a second side, and a door. The enclosure further including a transistor disposed on the back wall of the explosion resistant housing. The enclosure also includes a passive heat exchanger disposed on the outside of the back wall of the explosion resistant housing. Also, a method of thermal management within an enclosure includes transferring heat from a transistor within an explosion resistant housing, wherein the heat is transferred from the transistor to a back wall of the explosion resisting housing. The method further includes passively removing the heat from the explosion resistant housing.
