Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for additively manufactured vascular networks that can allow for large areas of a plate or structure to be maintained at a constant and even temperature throughout a wide range of applied heat loads, even if the heat load is applied only on portions of the surface. An additively manufactured vascular network in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure is a cost effective way of adding this thermal management solution over other more labor intensive options or methods with higher initial costs. Applications for additively manufactured vascular networks in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure can be found in a wide range of land, sea, air, and space environments.
