Title: Advances in heat pipe science and technology. Proceedings of the 9. international heat pipe conference: Volume 2

Conference ·
OSTI ID:677184

The Conference Proceedings incorporate 150 papers, including the invited lectures, regional surveys and papers selected from the presented contributions based on evaluation. In this publication these papers are grouped in 12 sections, as follows: (1) fundamental research and basic processes; (2) theoretical and experimental studies of heat pipes and thermosyphons; (3) development and application of heat pipe heat exchangers; (4) development and application of thermosyphons; (5) industrial applications of heat pipes; (6) performance prediction and modeling; (7) regional surveys of heat pipe activity; (8) aerospace applications of heat pipes; (9) special heat pipes; (10) heat pipe related materials and processes; (11) CPLs and loop heat pipes; and (12) a reference heat pipe publication. This last chapter serves as a vehicle for first publication of one of the original heat pipe concept discussions dating to the early 1960`s. Together these papers reflect the world wide picture of the latest achievements in fundamental research on the internal processes of heat pipes and heat pipe applications in energy conservation in industry, in space technology, in cooling technology for electronic devices and in high-efficiency heat exchange. This volume includes sections 7--12.
