        abstract = {This study examines a hybrid air and liquid 
cooling system designed to improve heat dissipation in 
high-performance PC processors. The system 
integrates aluminum fins and a copper liquid cooling 
pipe, supported by a single fan, to enhance thermal 
efficiency 
through combined convection and 
conduction. Evaluation was carried out using CFD 
simulations (ANSYS) and Data Acquisition (DAQ) 
testing. Thermocouples, temperature probes, and flow 
sensors were placed at key locations such as the 
processor surface and coolant outlet to measure real
time thermal performance.DAQ data validated the 
simulation results, confirming the system’s accuracy 
and efficiency. Future improvements will focus on 
optimizing fin design, pipe configuration, and using 
advanced materials to boost performance further.},
