  Sink - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In plumbing, a sink or basin is a bowl-shaped fixture that is used for washing hands or small objects such as food, dishes, nylons, socks or underwear.
Sinks generally have faucets (taps) that supply hot and cold water and may include a spray feature to be used for faster rinsing.
Especially for bottom-mount sinks, silicone-based sealants are usually used to assure a waterproof joint between the sink and the countertop material.

 Heat sink - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Microprocessors and power handling semiconductors are examples of electronics that need a heat sink to reduce their temperature through increased thermal mass and heat dissipation (primarily by conduction and convection and to a lesser extent by radiation).
While a heat sink is a static object, a fan often aids a heat sink by providing increased airflow over the heat sink — thus maintaining a larger temperature gradient by replacing the warmed air more quickly than passive convection achieves alone — this is known as a forced air system.
Efficient heat sinks are vital to overclocked computer systems because the better the various microprocessors' cooling rate, the faster the computer can operate without instability; generally, faster operation leads to higher performance.

 Choosing a New Kitchen Sink
The sink might not be the first thing that comes to mind when it's time for a kitchen renovation, but it's a vital part of any upgrade.
The material and color of the sink often are coordinated with or determined by the countertops, although it's not a requirement that they be exactly the same.
Double-bowl sinks are common these days, but many renovated kitchens now feature sinks with three bowls: often two large ones for everyday use and a smaller one for the garbage disposal.

 Welcome to aboutSINKS.com!
Sinks are such a common part of our lives that we oftentimes don't even think about them.
However, since plumbing has become ubiquitous, dry sinks (just a wooden stand or cupboard with a low shelf for holding a wash basin or bowl), have gone from being part of everyone's life to just curiosities and collectibles.
A standard size kitchen sink is around 30" to 34", but you can get them configured into a single bowl, double bowl or even a triple bowl with a small sink for cleaning vegetables.
