Testing out a CPU cooler with a copper Vapor Chamber and Copper HeatSink

The goal of this project is to simulate the simplified version of the cooling system of the HP Workstation Notebook.
This is a Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) problem. Incompressible turbulent flow was assigned for the air flow. Two cooling scenarios are going to be investigated
1- Current cooling system 
2- External cooling fan assisted system

The cooling mechanism is very crucial to ensure the rated performance of CPU, at the same time it accounts for the major operating cost of the system. Therefore, an efficient electronics cooling is necessary to provide the continuous operations at low operating costs. Tools of computational Fluid Dynamics are widely being used to optimize the cooling mechanism of the chips. In this study the focus is on finding the optimum heat sink design for electronics cooling.

My first Natural convection Simulation... Any thoughts on improvements please comment :)
