Hi!
I'm constructing a dummy load from 4x100W 4 Ohms effect resistors. I was thinking of using CPU thermal paste between the resistors and the heatsinks.
Is this the right way to do it?
The resistors can get very warm, a lot warmer than a CPU since they dissipate 100W. I don't want the paste to evaporate or become runny.
Any advice welcome!
