Abstract
A heat sink includes a frame having a non-metallic body that includes a window. The non-metallic body includes at least one peripheral wall that defines a boundary of the window. The non-metallic body includes a non-metallic material. The heat sink also includes a heat exchanger having a base and cooling fins. The base has a structure side and an opposite environmental side. The structure side of the base is configured to thermally communicate with a structure for absorbing heat from the structure. The cooling fins extend from the environmental side of the base. The heat exchanger is held by the frame such that the cooling fins extend within the window of the frame.
