How Does Nanotechnology Improve Heat Sink Performance?
Enhancements in heat sink performance through nanotechnology are primarily achieved by:
Increasing Thermal Conductivity: Nanoscale materials often have superior thermal properties compared to their bulk counterparts. Improving Surface Area: Nanostructured surfaces can significantly increase the contact area with the cooling medium, facilitating better heat transfer. Reducing Thermal Resistance: Nanomaterials can bridge gaps more effectively, reducing thermal resistance between the heat source and the sink.
