A metallic foam heat dissipator for cooling electronic components was addressed. A heat dissipator is a partitioned aluminum container loaded along with aluminum metallic foam and saturated with paraffin wax. A heat flux at a surface contains a basic uniform flux and the step transient raise, which...
