Cooling a group of six IGBTs that generate 6 kW with a heat pipe/heat-sink hybrid assembly does a better job than an extruded aluminum heat sink by itself. NELSON J. GERNERT, VP of Engineering and ...

Over the past decade, the use of heat pipes in electronic cooling applications has increased dramatically, primarily in notebook computers. In fact, virtually every notebook computer manufactured ...

Conventional heat sinks can no longer properly cool high-power electronic devices. Heat pipes more effectively transfer heat away from these devices, meeting the high-power cooling needs. Heat-pipe ...

The utilisation of heat pipes in nuclear reactor systems represents a transformative approach to thermal management, combining inherent safety with enhanced efficiency. Heat pipes offer a passive, ...

The Ninja copper is a perfect example of brute force heatsink design, with lots of heatpipes and cooling fins on display. There are six copper plated heat pipes in a “U” configuration, meeting in the ...

Once the secret design tool for aerospace designers, the heat pipe is a common fixture now thanks to the demands of PC CPU cooling. Heat pipes can transfer lots of energy from a hot side to a cold ...
