Copper is three times more heat-conductive than aluminium. This means that an aluminium plate must be three times as thick as a copper one to get the same heat distribution
hence copper homogenises very well
Also using a large chuck of copper dissipates and conducts away heat faster and more efficiently
The plan i have envisaged will have both copper and aluminium heat sink dissipating
By using a large amount of copper my aluminium heatsink demands come down
Heat is less localised when using the copper spreader
This cools faster and more efficiently
apart from this my framework is aluminium extrusion
basically the entire chaisis ( except for the insulated front ) is a heatsink ( in some respects )
