Abstract
Abstract: In this paper we studied the effect of fins length of heatsink on the performance of the processor type Athlon XP+ 1.73GHz .First a common heat sink had ben used, then the reads of the processor it's temperature and heat emission at three conditions were taken ,the 1st one at minimum uses of performance just opening windows ,the 2nd one at the average use of performance opening word document with some wrights while the 3rd one is the maximum use of performance of the processor and this occurs when we run a huge software or a complicated high graphics big game. Many programs give us a full condition for any part of the computer especially the processor such as (Norton System Work, Sandra SIS, Windows Vista Task Manager (WVTM)…etc). In this research we used (WVTM) because it's part of the OS vista 119 أحمد عدنان دراسة تأثير طول الزعنفة لمبدد حراري على أداء المعالج من نوع أثلون which will not apply another load upon the processor, also the (WVTM) contains great tools of operations. Also we calculate the time requiring for the OS to boot at this type of heatsink and other applications like office and others. Then we changed the heatsink with another one with fins length twice than the old one. A model of the heatsink were built for both cases by the package (AutoCAD 2008) and analyzed it in the package (FLUENT 6.3) to show the thermal emission inside both heatsinks and the experimental and theoretical results were acceptable.
