Keeping Cool (or Warm) with Physics

Managing heat is crucial in technology, from computers to houses.

Applications

• Computers use fans and heat sinks to dissipate heat and prevent overheating.
• Homes use insulation to reduce heat loss or gain, saving energy.
• Car engines use radiators to transfer excess heat away.

Real-World Benefits

Effective thermal management increases device longevity, efficiency, and comfort in everyday life.
