it is nowhere near the type of suction you would get from something like a FAN. This bringsus onto or next point:Increasing the flow of air to the heatsinkQuite simply, mount a fan onto our copper fins to push more air across the heatsink. Thismeans that more heat can be dissipated from the heatsink and transferred into the air. Thishot air then rises, and is usually sucked out of your case via an exhaust fan at the back ofyour case.So there you have it. Heatsinks today also implement heatpipes, which are hollow copperpipes filled with a liquid which evaporates and condenses to transfer heat.Module 4 Student Guide Fluids & Thermodynamics Page 30
