A heat sink is a metal part put on top of a computer chip, like a CPU, to get rid of the heat made when it's working. It doesn't move by itself, but lets the heat go up through its fins and out into the air around it. Sometimes, a fan is used with a heat sink to make it cooler by blowing the hot air away. Or, it can be part of a liquid cooling system where pipes move the heat away.
The heat sink law based on Fourier's law of heat conduction states that heat transfers from regions of high temperature to regions of low temperature when a temperature gradient exists within a body. This transfer can occur through convection, radiation, or conduction. When two objects with different temperatures come into contact, conduction allows thermal energy to transfer from the higher-temperature object to the lower-temperature one through molecular collisions, a process known as thermal conductivity.
Heat sinks are crafted from materials with high thermal conductivity such as aluminum alloys and copper. Fins or pins stick out from the heat sink, making a bigger surface area to spread out the heat across the computer.
In most cases, yes, a heatsink is recommended for a Raspberry Pi 4. Heatsinks give extra ways for heat to move away from the hot components and disperse into the air. Heatsinks attach to the parts of the Raspberry Pi that generate heat and help to maintain lower temperatures.
To cool your Raspberry Pi 4, you can attach heatsinks to the chips on the board. It helps reduce the heat generated by the components. This is a simple and affordable solution. But if you're using your Raspberry Pi for really tough jobs or high-performance applications, investing in a cooling case might be a more suitable option.
If a Raspberry Pi gets too hot, it can lead to slow performance and might even cause it to stop working completely. Like all electronics, the Raspberry Pi works best within a certain temperature range. If it gets too hot, it might not work as well. In really bad cases, it might stop working altogether.
