Heat transfer module
Abstract
A heat transfer module can include an envelope sealed to define an internal volume that contains a working fluid and a wick disposed on an internal surface of the envelope. The wick and envelope each has a first portion extending through an evaporator region and a second portion extending through adiabatic and condenser regions. The first portion of the wick is a metal hydride. The first portion of the envelope includes a metal liner surrounding the first portion of the wick, a first diffusion barrier layer disposed between the first portion of the wick and the metal liner, and a ceramic matrix composite cladding surrounding the metal liner. The second portions of the wick and envelope each includes a refractory metal and/or stainless steel.
