An international research team has designed a novel cooling system for PV modules involving a phase change material (PCM), heat sink fins, and water. The experimental system utilizes passive cooling, ...

Heat-sink devices and technology have many aspects, but I am hooked on basic models of varying sizes and fabrication ...

The heat generated from large power semiconductors such as IGBTs, diodes, or thyristors can be as high as several kilowatts. While conventional extruded heat sinks have been one of the most widely ...

This presentation will provide a review of the steps used to select a heat sink and how to read a thermal performance graph. There will be a discussion of how to determine power dissipation and ...
