TL;DR: In this article, a Tesla-type valve is successfully designed for promoting circulation in a pulsating heat pipe (PHP) and improving the thermal resistance, which is tested by laminar single-phase modeling and by steady two-phase flow experiments.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new CFD simulation of two phase flow inside thermosiphon heat pipe is carried out to investigate the effect of fill ratio (ratio of liquid volume to the evaporator volume) and inclination angle on its thermal performance in terms of temperature distribution and thermal resistance using FLUENT (ANSYS 15).

30 Dec 1997TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of a heat generating device is described. Butler et al. present a pickup chuck with a heat pipe, which includes a first end defining an evaporator portion and a second end defining a condenser portion.
Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of a heat generating device. In one embodiment, a pickup chuck having a heat pipe is provided. The heat pipe includes a first end defining an evaporator portion and a second end defining a condenser portion. A thermally conductive member at the first end of the heat pipe is adapted to engage a surface of the heat generating device. Heat is transferred away from the heat generating device by engaging the thermally conductive member with a surface of the heat generating device.

TL;DR: In this article, a radial grooved micro heat pipe (MHP) with a three-layer structure was designed to allow separation of the liquid and vapor flow to reduce the viscous shear force.
