Sketch of a cylindrical electronic device. (a) a three dimensional sketch of a cylindrical electronic device. The conical section represents the heat conduction medium, the cone showing one of the heat transfer paths from the interior heat source (red) to the edge (blue) of the electronic device, and (b) is the cross section optimal designs of the embedded nanocone. Three curves represent the three shapes of the nanocone corresponding to three different volumes of the nanocone (viz. Vp).
