Advanced Heat Sinks »

When incorporated into a thermal management system Heat sinks exploit all three modes of heat transfer: by conduction through the base plate and fins; by convection across the heat sink air interface and by radiation from the outer surfaces exposed to the surroundings.   

Thermacore heat sinks offer performance advantages by maximising dimensional ratios that exceed normal extrusion capabilities. 

Thermacore Europe Gang Sawn Heat Sink 

 When designing a heat sink specification numerous parameters must be considered such as size, surface area, material, pressure drop through the heat sink and sustainable pressure from the forced air flow.  Thermacore ensure that all of these parameters are considered by following a formal design review process. 

Benefits 
Efficient cooling of electronic systems increases MTTF and enhances system reliability. The optimum solution can be achieved by utilising standard heat sinks or advanced enhanced heat sink technology. Both can be used in natural or forced convection systems.
 
Cost effective and reliable
Thermacore will develop a heat sink design specification for each application meeting your performance and cost parameters.  This would enable a comparison of long term equipment reliability and the resulting total applied cost compared with the use of a lower cost lower specification solution.
  
Flexible design

Understanding the fine balance between cost, performance and system geometry is at the heart of the Thermacore design process.  Resulting solutions enable customers to maintain product performance in competitive and aggressive markets.  Thermacore access all available technologies to reach optimised solutions.
