A heat sink has a panel body and a heat radiating portion. The panel body
includes a working fluid circuit for circulating a working fluid in the
panel body and has a heat receiving portion and a heat radiating portion
substantially on the same plane. The heat radiating portion has an upper
region and a lower region. The heat receiving portion is provided on a
lateral side of the lower region of the heat radiating portion, and a
plurality of radiating fins are provided on at least one surface of the
heat radiating portion of the panel body. The working fluid circuit
extends from the heat receiving portion to the lower region of the heat
radiating portion and further to the upper region of the heat radiating
portion, and the working fluid circuit in the lower region of the heat
radiating portion has an average channel cross sectional area which is
smaller than an average channel cross sectional area of the working fluid
circuit in the heat receiving portion.
