Zusammenfassung:A heat sink (6a) is disclosed including a cold plate (30), a plurality of heat pipes (20), a plurality of fins (10), and a heating unit (40). The cold plate (30) has a first surface adapted to thermally couple to a heat source. Each of the heat pipes (20) has an evaporator section thermally coupled to the cold plate (30) and a condenser section coupled to the evaporator section. The plurality of fins (10) are thermally coupled to the condenser sections of the plurality of heat pipes (20). The heating unit (40) is adapted to heat condenser sections of a subset of the plurality of heat pipes (20).
