copper can conduct the heat faster than for example aluminium, but it also keeps the heat longer inside than the just named aluminium.
| Disagree. Copper transfers heat faster than alum = absorbs and dissipates faster than alum.
However, brass looks / feels like copper, is worst than alum in heat transfer characteristic. The impurities in brass make conduction lower.
One will never know so called copper heatsink from Countries with questionable supply of materials is really copper or brass. |
