Orange Pi on H5 processors. How do you solve cooling problems?
Good time of the year! An Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 H5
recently flew to me (in a set version, with a USB expansion card and a black plastic case ). I made it a control station for all sorts of IoT devices in the house.
The principle is simple: when loading Armbian, the web server with Django starts, then Chromium starts and goes to http://127.0.0.1:8000). All control through the touch screen (no mouse / keyboard).
Immediately turned everything off and dismantled the case. Yes, the CPU itself can leave a sickly burn on your fingers. The rest of the elements (including the USB expansion board) are also very hot ... compared to Raspberry Pi 3 with similar tasks and configurations with a plastic case and exactly the same heatsink - my CPU temperature never rose above 35-40 degrees!

I have Home Assistant inside a Docker container, polling devices, showing a web interface over WiFi (the screen is not connected).
Normal system load is less than 6%, CPU temperature is less than 35 degrees, the same passive heatsink is used.
1. plastic case + passive cooling = strange choice, you need to add a cooler
2. something consumes resources a lot, you need to change/configure the software
