LIGHTING SYSTEM WITH A HEAT SINK HAVING PLURALITY OF HEAT CONDUITS

摘要

A lighting system includes a heat sink having an upper and a lower face, and a plurality of light engines. The heat sink includes a plurality of individual, enclosed heat conduits extending generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the heat sink between the upper and the lower faces. Each heat conduit has an entrance proximate to the lower face and an exit proximate to the upper face. The light engines are each coupled to at least one heat conduit such that thermal energy generated by the light engines is transferred to the heat conduits to cause air to flow through each of the heat conduits due to convection.
