ABSTRACT:
A heat sink mounted on an electronic component causes a thermal plume effect so that air adjacent to the electronic component moves through one or more channels in the heat sink in a direction substantially transverse to and away from the electronic component. The heat sink includes a base attachable to the electronic component, a support member mounted on and substantially transverse to the base, and a heat exchanger mounted on the support member and spaced away from the base. The heat exchanger has at least one entry hole adjacent to the base, at least one exit hole at a distance from the entry hole, and one or more channels adjacent to the support member and in flow communication with the entry hole and the exit hole.
