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. Computer fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

   Fans attached to components are usually used in combination with a heat sink to increase the area of heated surface in contact with the air, thereby improving the efficiency of cooling. Fan control is not always an automatic process. A computer's BIOS can control the speed of the built-in fan system for the computer. A user can even supplement ...

4. Computer cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cooling

   Fans are used when natural convection is insufficient to remove heat. Fans may be fitted to the computer case or attached to CPUs, GPUs, chipsets, power supply units (PSUs), hard drives, or as cards plugged into an expansion slot. Common fan sizes include 40, 60, 80, 92, 120, and 140 mm. 200, 230, 250 and 300 mm fans are sometimes used in high ...

6. Air cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_cooling

   A Cooler Master computer heat sink has many heat pipes. CPU cooler Thermalright Le Grand Macho RT installed into the computer case. Air cooling is a method of dissipating heat. It works by expanding the surface area or increasing the flow of air over the object to be cooled, or both.

7. 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]
