What is a Thermal Module?
A thermal module is a combination of multiple cooling components designed to efficiently dissipate heat from electronic devices. These modules are essential in high-performance applications, ensuring optimal operating temperatures and system reliability.
Options for Thermal Module
Common Thermal Module Combination
- Heat Sink + TIM – A simple yet effective solution where a heat sink is combined with TIM (e.g., thermal grease, pad, or phase-change material) to enhance heat transfer from the component to the heat sink.
- Heat Sink + Heat Pipe – Used for high-performance cooling, where heat pipes rapidly transfer heat away from the source to a larger heat sink for dissipation.
- Heat Sink + Vapor Chamber – A more advanced alternative to heat pipes, vapor chambers offer even heat spreading, ideal for compact, high-power applications.
- Fan + Heat Sink (Active Cooling) – Common in CPUs and GPUs, an active cooling system where a fan enhances airflow over the heat sink to improve heat dissipation.
- Liquid Cooling (Cold Plate + Pump + Radiator + Fan) – Used in extreme cooling applications, where a coolant circulates through a cold plate attached to the heat source, then dissipates heat through a radiator with fans.

What is vapor chamber?
A vapor chamber is a high-performance thermal solution that efficiently spreads heat using phase change technology. It offers ultra-low thermal resistance in XY and Z directions, outperforming metal and ceramic alternatives. Lightweight and thin, it’s ideal for processors, GPUs, and servers, ensuring superior heat dissipation for high-density applications.
Working theorem?
A vapor chamber works like a heat pipe but offers 2D thermal conduction for superior heat dissipation. Inside, a capillary-structured vacuum chamber enables rapid fluid vaporization and condensation, efficiently transferring heat. This continuous cycle ensures effective cooling, making it ideal for high-performance thermal management in advanced electronic devices.

What is heat sink?
A heat sink, typically made of aluminum or copper, serves as both a cooling component and mechanical housing. Manufactured through stamping, extrusion, die casting, or forging, it efficiently dissipates heat. Surface treatments enhance performance, while customized designs optimize thermal conductivity and surface area for improved heat dissipation efficiency.
Working theorem?
A heat sink works by absorbing heat from a source and dissipating it into the surrounding air through conduction, convection, and radiation. Made of high thermal conductivity materials like aluminum or copper, its increased surface area enhances heat transfer, improving cooling efficiency for electronic and industrial applications.
What is heat pipe?
A heat pipe is a highly efficient passive cooling device that uses phase change and convection principles to transfer heat. It consists of a sealed tube with a wick structure and working fluid, rapidly dissipating single-point heat by cycling liquid-to-vapor transformation for superior thermal management.
Working theorem?
A heat pipe removes internal air, seals in a working fluid, and uses low-pressure vaporization for efficient heat transfer. Heat absorption causes rapid evaporation, moving vapor to the condensation zone, where it releases heat and returns to liquid. This continuous cycle enables heat transfer 50–100 times more effective than aluminum.

What are fans?
Fans are essential cooling components used in industrial and electronic products for thermal management. By generating airflow, they dissipate heat, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. Common in electrical machinery and electronic devices, fans prevent overheating, enhancing system reliability and longevity.
Working theorem?
A cooling fan operates by creating airflow to dissipate heat from industrial and electronic equipment. As air moves across heated surfaces, it carries away excess heat, maintaining stable temperatures and preventing performance degradation due to overheating.
What is cold plate?
A cold plate is a high-efficiency liquid cooling solution that absorbs and dissipates heat from electronic components. It enhances thermal management by circulating coolant through precision-engineered channels for superior heat transfer.
Working theorem?
Cold plates operate by circulating liquid coolant through internal channels, absorbing heat from the source and transferring it to a remote heat exchanger. This ensures efficient, uniform cooling for high-power electronic applications.
What is thermoelectric cooling chip?
Thermoelectric cooling chips (TEC) are advanced cooling devices that utilize the Peltier effect for precise temperature management. By applying electrical current, they efficiently absorb heat on one side and release it on the other, making them ideal for sensitive electronics and medical applications.
Working theorem?
TEC modules operate on the Peltier effect, using P-type and N-type semiconductors. When a direct current flows through the thermocouple, one side cools while the other heats up, enabling effective temperature regulation. This principle allows TECs to maintain stable conditions in various industrial and scientific settings.
