Fans, Thermal Management Definitions

Fans and Thermal management components are used primarily to control the temperature of electronic devices and systems. As these devices operate, they generate considerable amounts of heat, particularly in the power-dissipating components. If left unchecked, this heat can cause components to overheat and malfunction, or it may even lead to system-wide failures. Therefore, thermal management is critical for maintaining the reliability, performance, and lifespan of electronic devices and systems.

How the Fans, Thermal Management components work:

1.AC and DC Fans: These fans are used to generate airflow around the components of a system. As the air moves, it carries away the heat generated by the components, thereby cooling them down.

2.Heat Sinks: Heat sinks work by conducting heat away from a hot object (like a power-dissipating component) and dissipating it into the surrounding air, usually with the help of a fan for added efficiency.

3.Thermally Conductive Adhesives: These are used to both physically bond components and promote heat transfer between them. They fill the gaps between heat-generating components and heat sinks to eliminate air pockets and ensure effective heat transfer.

4.Thermal Interface Products: Similar to thermally conductive adhesives, these products are used to improve thermal contact between surfaces, like between a chip and a heat sink, to facilitate efficient heat transfer.

5.Heat Pipes & Thermoelectric (Peltier) Modules: Heat pipes use the evaporation and condensation of a working fluid to transfer heat, while Peltier modules use electric currents to transfer heat from one side of the device to the other.
