High Performance Cooler

In a Therma-Tower™ the base is an integral part of the heat pipe. By having wick structure in the base, a significant thermal interface between the heat source and the air is eliminated, and higher heat flux loads can be handled. The vertical arrangement of cooling fins along the outside of the heat pipe results in maximum heat dissipation with the smallest footprint.

The Therma-Tower™ heat pipe example presented here is a compact forced convection heat sink designed to cool a 110 watt processor module at 0.295°C per watt at an air flow of 400 FPM. Thermacore's wicked base structure will handle higher heat loads, and the tower design of the stacked fins provides exceptional cooling in a small footprint.
