Abstract
A heat sink is provided for transferring heat to air flowing from an upstream path. The heat sink includes a support portion and a plurality of fins extending from the support portion. The fins and the support portion together define channels at least one of which has a portion angled with respect to the upstream path of flowing air. Redirection of the flowing air from the upstream path to at least one downstream path is thereby facilitated.
