Actually when current is passed through the diode then the mobile electron gets an electrostatic force due to which they move and when they move due to collision some energy is lost and changes into heat that's why heat is produced in a diode.

H=I2*R is the dissipated through the diode where 'R' is the bulk resistance of the diode.

If there is a potential difference then the current will flow, then why it is not taken into account?
