Abstract
A plurality of thin flat parallel positioned thermal conductive fins adapted to be connected to an object and a gas passageway passing between adjacent fins and extending between the top of the fins and opposite sides. Gas guides are positioned between adjacent fins at the center of the plurality of fins and redirect the outlet end of the pasageways normal to the inlet ends of the passageways. Alternately positioned fins face in opposing directions. The fins may be integrally formed or individually formed. A thermal conductive base may be provided at the bottom of the plurality of fins for connection to an electronic package.
