Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accelerate the heat transfer from a heat sink to air, by forming a heat sink fin like a cylinder or tube, and warming the air concentrically in a cylinder or tube surrounded by the heat sink fin. SOLUTION: When the heat generated in a device 3 such as electronic components is transferred to a heat sink fin 1, the inside of this cylindrical fin is concentrically warm to rise the temp., i.e., the heat from the hot device 3 is transferred to a heat sink 4 and conducted to the entire fin 1 due to thermal conduction, while the temp. difference is caused between the inside and outside of the fin 1 to flow the outside air into the inside through slits 2 and move up in tube due to the chimney effect, thereby obtaining a natural convection round the fin 1.
