A heat sink absorbs and dissipates heat generated by computers, microprocessors, and other heavily used devices. It absorbs heat in two ways: direct thermal contact, where it makes direct contact with the surface; and radiant absorption, where it absorbs heat from between the two surfaces. It helps regulate temperature and prevents overheating, which can damage the device.
