heat dissipation

Heat dissipation is the process of releasing excess heat generated by electronic devices or systems to prevent overheating. When devices operate, they produce heat as a byproduct of energy use. To maintain safe and efficient functioning, this heat must be transferred away from the components. This can occur through conduction (heat moving through materials), convection (heat carried away by air or liquids), or radiation (heat emitted as electromagnetic waves). Effective heat dissipation ensures devices stay within optimal temperature ranges, prolonging their lifespan and maintaining performance. Proper cooling methods include heatsinks, fans, or liquid cooling systems.
