Natural convection heat transfer of a straight-fin heat sink

The influence of mounting angle on heat dissipation performance of a heat sink under natural convection condition is investigated in this paper by numerical simulation and experimental test. It is found that the heat sink achieves the highest cooling power when its mounting angle is 90°, while it re...
