I assume that you are seeking the inventor of the "Electronic" heat sink as in for CPU's or Video cards or in some cases RAM.
I am unable to find an inventor for that general class of items however the inventor of the water exchange radiator "the basic concept of a heat sink is a radiator" would be none other then Karl Benz of Mercedes Benz.
As for the principle of electronics cooling by air? I could not one one person responsible.
Hope this helps!
What else can I help you with?
What does a heat sink do?
A heat sink is usually something that draws something away from an electrical componet (Ex: ICU's, Processors and transistors) APEX- A device that absorbs and draws heat from a hot object, dispersing it into the surroundings.
What component is under the fan and heat sink?
A central processing unit (CPU), is under the fan and heat sink. The processor creates a lot of heat as it works, and would soon burn-out if not cooled.
What are the Types of fan and heatsink?
your moma is my heat sink
What is a piece of metal with cooling fins that can be attached to an integrated chip to dissipate heat?
It's called a Heat Sink.
What is heat sync on a computer?
There is no such thing as a "heat sync". There is such a thing as a "heat sink", this is a piece of finned metal that is a good conductor that is placed into thermal contact with the CPU or GPU chip to take away the heat produced by the chip when in operation to prevent it overheating.
What is the function of a processor heat sink?
To sink the heat.
How does a heat sink work in the power supply?
A heat sink works on the principle of thermal transfer. The heat sink transfers heat from the chip to the air, wicking heat away.
Is water a type of heat sink?
Yes! Water is a heat sink.
Why is it called a heat sink?
Probably because it draws/absorbs the heat making the heat "sink" into it
How are heat sink and carbon sink related?
A heat sink is a device used to dissipate heat from electronic components, while a carbon sink is a natural or artificial reservoir that absorbs and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The similarity lies in their functions of absorbing and dissipating substances - heat for a heat sink and carbon dioxide for a carbon sink.
What is heat sinker?
makes the heat sink
The heat sink removes heat from the?
electric component
What would cause the laptop not to power on aside from heat sink?
heat sink fine+laptop won't power on
Why was the sink invented by macy marshall sink why was the sink invented?
Well, I suppose that she decided it was in need, like a design brief, so she made it because she is a woman called Macy marshall Sink and she felt like it
When upgrading a CPU what must be applied between the new CPU and the heat sink fan?
Thermal grease to allow heat to transfer to the heat sink.
What does heat sink do?
It helps conduct heat away from the object on which it is placed. Without the heat sink, a computer CPU would get too hot to function.
What is the purpose of the heat sink on a processor?
A heat sink is designed to disperse and transfer heat coming from a processor to an outside medium, so that it does not overheat the actual processor chip. It is usually used in conjunction with a fan to cool the device it is installed on.
