Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses advanced extrusion technology optimized for forced air applications, specifically focusing on High Fin Ratio Heat Sinks. These heat sinks offer a competitive alternative to fabricated fins or bonded solutions by providing increased efficiency for high power applications under forced convection.
Key Features:
  • High Fin Ratio Extrusions enhance cooling efficiency by increasing the cooling surface area.
  • When combined with a fan, these heat sinks offer significant cooling benefits over system-level fans by improving localized airflow and thermal efficiency.
  • Active fan heat sinks provide superior thermal performance compared to larger passive solutions.
Benefits of Aavid High Fin Ratio Heat Sinks:
  • Enhanced performance in compact spaces.
  • Increased lifespan and reliability of high power components.
  • Effective in systems where airflow is restricted or not possible.
  • Impingement designs help cool adjacent components.
  • Designed by skilled engineers using the latest CFD software.
  • Suitable for a wide range of applications, including drivers, power supplies, and industrial equipment.
  • No tooling required and stock available for standard profiles.
  • Options for anodizing or other surface finishes.
Technical Specifications:
  • Thermal performance and pressure drop curves are based on a uniform thermal load on the heat sink base, with a 2 m/s air speed for forced convection and a 75 °C temperature sink-to-ambient differential.
  • Standard profiles include various models with specific weights and thermal resistance values (e.g., HFR160, HFR170, HFR180, etc.).

High Fin Ratio Power Extrusions-1

THERM ALLOY High Fin Ratio Heat Sinks for high power applications ADVANCED EXTRUSION TECHNOLOGY OPTIMISED FOR FORCED AIR. Up to 20:1 ratio available, providing a competitive alternative to fabricated fins or bonded solutions. High Fin Ratio Extrusions provide increased efficiency for high power applications under forced convection by creating a greater cooling surface. - anodizing or other surface finishes possible Combined with a fan, High Fin Ratio heat sinks provide significant component cooling benefits over system level fans. They incorporate a dedicated fan with a heat sink base to increase localized airflow while improving thermal efficiency. These active fan heat sinks allow for greater thermal performance than can be achieved with a much bigger size passive solution Why use Aavid High Fin Ratio heat sinks with Aavid fans? - Enhanced performance in less space - Increased life and reliability of critical high power components - System airflow is restricted or not possible - Impingement designs cool adjacent components - Skilled design engineers utilizing latest CFD design software - Suitable for a wide range of applications from drivers to power supplies to industrial equipment - No tooling and stock available for standard profiles <\\7/> AA\/in High Fin Ratio Heat Sinks
