ABSTRACT:
A heat sink to be used with a heat source can include a base portion and a fin portion. The base portion can include a plurality of heat pipes and a space formed at least partially between adjacent heat pipes. The base portion can also include a first plate thermally connected to the heat source and a second plate thermally connected to the fin portion. The plurality of heat pipes contacts the first plate and the second plate. The plurality of heat pipes can also include a first portion that is closer than a second portion to the heat source. Additionally, a distance between adjacent heat pipes is smaller at the first portion than at the second portion.
