It is clear that
The etching of silicon releases energy. The faster the etch is, the more heat needs to be dissipated. Similarly, the larger a percentage of the wafer is etched, the more heat must be dissipated. Process A is the fastest etch and as seen here, the exposed area also plays an important role.
