what on earth are you trying to model ?
the cpu's heat generation ?
or the "C/W" of the cooling device ?

uneven vs. uniform heating is addressed through a 'correction factor'
-> which is UNIQUE for each model of processor
you will never know these values,
nor do you need to in order to compare one cooling device with another

and the subject is actually considerably more complex than described,
keep it simple and something useful might be accomplished

less talking and more testing will yield great results
