  • Patent number: 4750551
    Abstract: Apparatus for the isothermal transfer of heat from a heat source to a heat absorber, the heat source and the heat absorber being enclosed within a container. A heat transfer working medium (e.g., a volatile liquid) is enclosed within the container and is capable of being efficiently vaporized on the surface of the heat source, being conveyed to the heat absorber, being condensed thereon, and being returned to the heat source. The quantity of the heat transfer medium contained in the container is sufficient to permit vaporization thereof on the surface of the heat source. A method of isothermal heat transfer is also disclosed.
