Jäähdytyssiivekkeiden
Jäähdytyssiivekkeet, known in English as cooling fins or heat sinks, are passive heat exchangers designed to dissipate heat from a device to a surrounding fluid medium, most commonly air. They increase the surface area of a component, thereby enhancing the rate of convective heat transfer. These fins are typically attached to heat-generating components such as CPUs, GPUs, power transistors, and electric motors.
The design of cooling fins varies widely depending on the application, the amount of heat to be
The primary function of cooling fins is to move heat away from the source and into a
The effectiveness of cooling fins can be influenced by several factors, including fin geometry (height, thickness,
