Heat Sinks are widely used to remove the heat from the components which are generating heat during their functioning. Overheating causes malfunctioning of the components as well as it is responsible for reducing their life. Free convection is very common way of heat transfer from the heat sink considering power requirement, pressure drop and cost of the forced convection. This paper presents the thermal analysis of vertical plate fin heat sink by theoretical and experimental method at variable heat input. The results are obtained by taking experimental observations and are validated with already existing correlations suggested by various researchers in the literature.
Key words: Heat Sink / Natural Convection / Fin Array
