Using computational software and additive manufacturing to design, test and manufacture heat exchangers for electronics cooling demonstrates how heat sinks can be optimized, thereby improving the performance of consumer electronics.
Just like a car’s radiator keeps its engine from overheating, the heat associated with the processing of electricity must be reduced significantly in order for consumer electronic devices like computers, televisions and smartphones to function properly.
Lightweight aluminum heat sinks are available with push-pin mounting. The full range of heat sinks is sized for cooling components in lengths from 0.984 to 2.756” (25 to 70 mm).
Problems with overheating mobile phones could be a thing of the past thanks to a plastic being developed by Loughborough University scientists. The new plastic, unlike the ones currently used in mobile phone covers, dissipates heat created by the lithium batteries and reduces the likelihood of injury to the owners.
