This book on liquid-metal coolants fills the void of knowledge concerning heat pipe properties and other applications. The authors validate the use of liquid-metal coolants, currently underused due to the lack of information, such as presented in this volume. Applied problems, a complete set of properties of liquid-metal coolants and working fluids for currently operating and design-stage power plants are featured in this important work.
