Any fined aluminum extrusion with a flat smooth surface can be used then your IGBT is mounted on it with a layer of silicon grease in-between, but remember the mounting surface is also your collector, if your heat sink is going to touch other metal parts it is beter to electrically insulate the IGBT with a silicon insulator strip and insulating sleeves for the mounting screws, then the heat sink can be mounted on a box that is fitted with a cooling fan with the fins inside the box, else it can be mounted open with the fins in a vertical position for natural airflow over the fins

How do you check IGBT transistor?
show how to test igbt and mosfet in an easy way
How much does a heat sink cost?
more detail needed of how much heat to absorb and size available .
Why should some form of heat sink be used when soldering a rectifier in place?
The rectifier, actually any semiconductor, is heat sensitive. You must use a low wattage soldering iron and a heat sink, such as a pair of pliers clamped around the wire between the connection and the diode, to dissipate the heat. You must also make the connection as quickly as possible.
What is the standard height of a dishwashing sink?
The standard height of a dish-washing sink is 36 inches or 3 feet. Kitchen sinks can be installed to fit the height of the people in the home. These can be anywhere from 29 to 39 inches.
What is the difference in construction between power diode and simple diode?
Basically the semi-conductor junctions are a larger surface area and heat sinks are part of the design to dissipate heat.
How could you improve the design of a heat sink?
you hammer it and destroy it
What is the function of a processor heat sink?
To sink the heat.
How do you check igbt?
show how to test igbt and mosfet in an easy way
Why is a sink called a sink?
Probably because it draws/absorbs the heat making the heat "sink" into it

How does a heat sink work in the power supply?
A heat sink works on the principle of thermal transfer. The heat sink transfers heat from the chip to the air, wicking heat away.
Is water a type of heat sink?
Yes! Water is a heat sink.
Why is it called a heat sink?
Probably because it draws/absorbs the heat making the heat "sink" into it
How does heat capacity makes water a good heat sink?
If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.
A device that absorbs and draws heat from a hot object dispersing it into the surroundings is which one of the following?
Heat sink
How are heat sink and carbon sink related?
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.
What is heat sinker?
makes the heat sink
