  • Publication number: 20100229394
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for fabricating wick microstructures in heat pipes, comprising the following steps: providing a flat plate and a mold with several molding holes; filling a dry powder material in the several molding holes and putting the mold to cover the flat plate so as to form an object to be sintered; sintering the object; and removing the mold to form a flat plate with wick microstructures. The wick microstructures are arranged on the flat plate in a form of microgrooves, microcylinders or any combination of them. The flat plate with wick microstructures is further processed to form a heat pipe with a characteristic shape and having two kinds of wick microstructures such that the heat transferred by the heat pipe is increased and the occurrence of dry out of the heat pipe is delayed.

  • Patent number: 7730605
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for fabricating a heat dissipating apparatus. The method provides two highly heat conductive members having structure patterns. A highly heat conductive material is coated on the structured patterns for forming a micro-structure layer. The two highly heat conductive members are assembled to form a heat dissipating apparatus having micro-structure layer. The heat dissipating apparatus comprises a main body composed of the highly heat conductive members. The main body forms an accommodating cavity, and inner surfaces of the accommodating cavity form the micro-structure layer. A working fluid is filled into the accommodating cavity for transferring heat from a heat absorbing surface to a heat dissipating surface.

  • Patent number: 7011145
    Abstract: A method for enhancing the mobility of a working fluid in a liquid/gas phase heat dissipating device improves the mobility of the working fluid therein, and further enhancing the heat dissipation capability of the heat dissipating device. The present invention coats a layer on the surface of a capillary structure inside the heat dissipating device to increase the material property on the surface and the coupling force between the working fluid and the capillary structure and decrease the contact angle between the working fluid and the capillary structure, and thus the working fluid has a higher mobility to solve the problem of the high heat flux density of the liquid/gas heat dissipating device and improve the heat dissipation effect. The present invention not only applies to the heat generating electronic components within a limited space, but also applies to other electronic components that require a constant temperature.
