Understanding Thermal Management: A Simple Guide

Thermal management is the process of controlling heat in devices to keep them safe and efficient. It involves materials as well as techniques that absorb, dissipate, or control excess heat. Proper thermal management, with careful protection against excessive overheating, can greatly improve the performance of electronic devices, machinery, and others, thus their lifespan. Techniques include heat sinks, fans, and thermal pastes. Effective thermal management ensures systems work correctly without being damaged by high temperatures.
