Heat pipe is a very efficient way to transfer thermal energy from one end to another. It works on the principles of thermal conductivity and phase transfer. The High thermal conductivity enables a heat pipe to transfer and dissipate heat to the desired location through a “capillary action”. This effect is similar to placing a paper tissue in a fluid and observes the fluid rise up the paper towel.
Heat pipes were invented by Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1963 by George Grover to supply heat 更多
