Oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) have been the subject of significant research. Prior literature includes examples with higher overall thermal resistances and temperature fluctuations than typically desired in electronics cooling. More recent research h

The pulsating heat pipe (PHP) is a novel, simply formed, wickless heat pipe that relies on the phase change induced motion of a contained working fluid to transport heat between the evaporator (the hot end) and condenser (the cold end). The improved

Detailed results are presented of two ground-based tests carried out in September 1999 under ambient conditions (room temperature air and atmospheric conditions) to determine the thermal characteristics of loop heat pipes (LHP). One test (test 1) was

Detailed results of two ground-based tests to determine the thermal characteristics of loop heat pipes (LHP) with a view for application in spacecraft thermal control are presented. The tests were carried out in a thermal vacuum chamber. The first te

Heat pipes are critical to today's spacecraft thermal control. Ground testing of spacecraft places many heat pipes in gravity-driven reflux-mode, with condenser above evaporator. The design heat loads based on capillary-dri ven zero-gravity operation

The loop heat pipe is one of the prime enabling technologies in the ongoing development of high powered satellites. The ability to understand and model the LHP accurately has therefore become critical to the design of these spacecraft. This paper pre
