Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for methods and devices for improving the heat dissipating properties of a heatsink to provide increased cooling for electronic equipment, such as power converters. In one embodiment, a heatsink includes at least one fluid cooled portion and at least one heat pipe disposed adjacent to the fluid cooled portion. The heat pipe improves the conduction of heat away from heat sources.
