  2. Heat sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sink

    A heat sink (aluminum) with its heat pipes (copper) and fan (black) A heat sink (also commonly spelled heatsink, [1]) is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often air or a liquid coolant, where it is dissipated away from the device, thereby allowing regulation of ...

  3. Thermal management (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_management...

    CPU heat sink with fan attached A heat sink (aluminium) incorporating a heat pipe (copper) All electronic devices and circuitry generate excess heat and thus require thermal management to improve reliability and prevent premature failure. The amount of heat output is equal to the power input, if there are no other energy interactions. [1]

  4. Electronics cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronics_cooling

    On-line sources of information are available [1] and a number of books have been published on this topic. [2] [3] [4] Computer cooling is a sub-topic. Heat sinks are devices that are used to extend the surface area of electronic components available for air cooling, helping to lower the components case temperature. Fans are used to increase the ...

Connectors on this cable would be designated:

  6. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

    Full-tower computer cases may contain multiple cooling fans. At the top of the case is a fan controller. Fan control is the management of the rotational speed of an electric fan. In computers, various types of computer fans are used to provide adequate cooling, and different fan control mechanisms balance their cooling capacities and noise they ...

  7. Thermal interface material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_interface_material

    A thermal interface material (shortened to TIM) is any material that is inserted between two components in order to enhance the thermal coupling between them [1].A common use is heat dissipation, in which the TIM is inserted between a heat-producing device (e.g. an integrated circuit) and a heat-dissipating device (e.g. a heat sink).
