Apple may reduce the performance of the 3nm A17 Pro processor due to massive overheating of the iPhone 15 Pro::The problem of overheating of iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max smartphones is becoming widespread. It is possible that Apple will be forced to take the unpopular step of reducing the performance of the latest 3nm A17 Pro chip.
That would be a passive cooling system.
No? Passive systems don’t do anything to cool other than simply exist.
These systems use energy and are deliberately activated to influence how heat is transferred. That’s the difference of active vs passive.
Hmm that’s interesting, how does this system use energy to move heat around then, if there are no moving parts? Not a rhetorical question, I’m genuinely curious about this system, would you have more info or links to share?
Edit: I just saw the link from @Acters above, that’s pretty cool. I’m not sure if it qualifies as “no moving parts” given that “Inside AirJet® are tiny membranes that vibrate at ultrasonic frequency”, but I’m not gonna be hung up on a technicality, as it does seem a nice technology.
I know it’s Linus, but this is the video I first learned about piezoelectric blowers: https://youtu.be/vdD0yMS40a0?si=MrmBK_b6SbtYG5iF
It’s pretty rad. And already exists.
Thanks, pretty cool!

This is some company’s page, but they have a pretty good demonstration of one common method
