Recent studies have shown how these systems can be involved in the performance of physiological aspects, which are directly connected with the density of the vascular network and stomata per unit of surface area. The vein architecture, beyond being essential for a mechanical support of the leaf, can also play a crucial role in the efficiency of the photosynthesis. The aim of the present work was to highlight the possible role of leaves vein network as cooling system. The results support the hypothesis that the vascular system of grape leaves is correlated with leaf temperature.展开更多

One of the major components in the heat sink is the heat spreader which must be designed to effectively conduct the heat dissipated from the chip to a system of fins or extended surfaces for convective heat transfer to a flow of coolant. The heat spreader design must provide the capability to dissipate the thermal energy generated by the chip. However, the design of the heat spreader is also dependent on the convection characteristics of the fins within the heat sink, as well the material and geometry of the heat spreader. This paper focuses on the optimization of heat spreaders in a heat sink for safe and efficient performance of electronic circuits. The results of the study show that, for air-cooled electronics, the convective effects may dominate the thermal transport performance of the heat spreader in the heat sink.展开更多
