  • Fast heat pipe design and analysis methodology
    Patent number: 11872660
    Abstract: A method for performance determination of a heat pipe with an arbitrary liquid flow area and prescribed geometric dimensions, an external and internal structure, a heat pipe material and a working fluid, heating and cooling surface areas, and condenser cooling conditions is provided to obtain operating and performance parameters, wherein the operating and performance parameters are temperature distribution within the heat pipe, a heat transferred via a phase change and a conduction, an axial variation of a radius of curvature of a liquid-vapor interface along the heat pipe, a vapor temperature and pressure of the working fluid, by simulating a flow and an energy transfer inside.
