Heat Pipe Design and Technology: Modern Applications for Practical Thermal Management

This book provides a practical study of modern heat pipe engineering, discussing how it can be optimized for use on a wider scale. An introduction to operational and design principles, this book offers a review of heat and mass transfer theory relevant to performance, leading into and exploration of the use of heat pipes, particularly in high—heat flux applications and in situations in which there is any combination of non—uniform heat loading, limited airflow over the heat generating compo...
