This book provides a practical study of modern heat pipe engineering. After areview of heat and mass transfer theory relevant to heat pipe performance, the text first develops mathematical models for calculating heat-transfer limitations of high-temperature heat pipes and heat-transfer limitations and temperature gradient of low temperature heat pipes. It then compares the results withavailable experimental data. In addition, the author discusses heat pipe technology pertinent to the design and application of self-controlled, variable conductance heat pipes for spacecraft thermal control. The book also includes a computer program for designing and predicting heat pipe system performance.
