Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods for heat sinks within light fixtures. In embodiments, the heat sink may be a passive system that creates a cross-flow thermal management system to dissipate large amounts of heat in a slim light fixture. Embodiments may utilize a series of wings assembled in a linear design that are positioned perpendicular to the length of the light fixture to preserve the cross-flow heat sink.
