[Elecraft] Cooling on a KX2
Gents: Please excuse my ignorance here but being a retired professional engineer and owning the complete KX? Series, it seems to me why rely upon natural convection alone? If you have the means (indoors) why not provide yourself a simple DC fan blowing over the heat sink and move the convection component to forced convection? Forced convection has significant higher heat transfer than the conduction/natural convection model that the Elecraft KX? Series uses. While going to extended surface area that the Pro Audio fins gives, nothing beats a blast of cooling air over these fins to move the heat transfer to a much higher value than natural convection alone. Another way of saying this is why does a car draw air over the radiator ( extended surface) ?
