The main purpose of a heat sink is to expel heat from a generating source. Heat sinks work through the process of conductive and convection heat transfer. Heat sinks are a passive form of cooling, as they have no moving parts and require no power.
To pull heat away from your main processor (or other components) and expel it out of the enclosure (to keep the processor cool).
In electronics, a heat shield is metal fins designed to disperse heat that could damage a component.

The main purpose of a heat sink is to dissipate excessive heat away from the device that it is attached to. Some small integrated circuit components are so physically small that an over excess of heat generated by themselves would destroy the device. The heat sink is placed on the IC to prevent this from happening.
To sink the heat.
what is the function of the heat sink fan? *well the CPU generates heat and in order for the CPU to remain in a safe temperature zone a haet sink is added on top of the CPU.
Probably because it draws/absorbs the heat making the heat "sink" into it
A heat sink works on the principle of thermal transfer. The heat sink transfers heat from the chip to the air, wicking heat away.
Yes! Water is a heat sink.

If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.
Heat sink
heat sink is when heat is absorbed into any type of environment, including the aquatic ecosystem; and carbon sink is when CO2 is absorbed into any type of environment including the terrestrial ecosystem.
