A heat dissipation system suited for dissipating heat of a heat source. The heat dissipation system includes at least one flow channel, at least one electrode pair, and a control unit. The flow channel passing through the heat source has at least two openings. The electrode pair disposed in the flow channel is near the openings. The control unit is electrically connected to the electrode pair to control the voltage of the electrode pair, so that the electrode pair is discharged to ionize the air nearby, and to produce an ionized flow in the flow channel. The control unit controls a polarity and a magnitude of the voltage of the electrode pair to change the direction and the speed of the ionized flow, so that the ionized flow flows out of or into the flow channel from at least one of the openings. A heat dissipation method is also provided.
A heat dissipation system, suitable for dissipating heat of at least one heat source, the heat dissipation system comprising:
A heat dissipation method, suitable for dissipating heat of an electronic device, the electronic device comprises at least one heat generating element disposed in a casing of the electronic device and at least one electrode pair disposed at least one opening of the casing, the electronic device further comprises a control unit suitable for controlling a polarity and a magnitude of a voltage provided to the at least one electrode pair, the heat dissipation method comprising:
