Abstract :
The thermal performance of piezoelectric actuators for cooling in low form factor applications is presented. A significant reduction in thermal resistance is achievable when compared to the baseline natural convection. Comparisons with fans and blowers of similar size result in comparable performance but at greatly reduced power consumption
