Abstract
An apparatus for transferring heat from a heat source to air while the apparatus is connected to the heat source is provided. The apparatus has a heat sink comprising a heat sink base and a plurality of primary fins connected to the heat sink base. The apparatus includes a heat sink front. The heat sink base is configured to be thermally coupled to the heat source. Each primary fin of the plurality of primary fins has one or more conduits. The heat sink base includes a first chamber. The first chamber and the conduits together form a common space sealed off from the air surrounding the apparatus. The first chamber and the conduits together enclose a heat-carrying fluid in the common space formed by the first chamber and the conduits. A network access node for a wireless communication system is provided. The network access node comprises the above-described apparatus.
