I was watching this show on the TLC channel and it was about how they protect the aluminum on the space shuttles after re-entry into the earths atmosphere. They use FCC on the wings but ( i think its FiberCarbonCarbon) anyways thats not the point, they use these individual ceramic tiles and they showed how well these tyles disapate the HEAT, they heated it up to like 2500° and took it out of the oven placed it on the table and immediently picked it up i was shocked, but they said it disapates heat so well the cube can be picked up almost instantly after taking it out of the oven.
My question is do we have CERAMIC heatsinks...if not why dont we..my guess was we prolly dont have them because its to heavy..... but does anyone know any other reason..
I guess expense as well but if it works that well would not be able to disapate the heat of a processor easily with a fan blowing over it?
( i tried seach but its down )
