  • Publication number: 20190129480
    Abstract: System and method for transferring heat generated by internal electronic components of a mobile computer to its external environment. Heat absorption and transfer elements disposed, in part, proximate heat-producing components move the heat to a remote heat sink assembly adapted to dissipate the heat. Example embodiments include one or more fans to produce internal airflow(s) that further facilitate internal heat transfer.
