The invention discloses a porous
copper-wood
fiber /
polystyrene double-layer composite capillary core for a
loop heat pipe and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method of the porous
copper-wood
fiber /
polystyrene double-layer composite capillary core comprises the following steps that
sodium chloride or
anhydrous sodium carbonate are taken to
grind, sieving is carried out to obtain a pore forming agent with the particle size of 50 to 75 microns,
drying for later use is carried out;
polystyrene, wood fibers and the pore forming agent are mixed, tabletting is carried out, a porous woodfiber / polystyrene
composite material capillary core is obtained through
sintering and washing; an electrolytic
copper powder and the pore forming agent are mixed, tabletting is carried out, and a porous copper-wood
fiber / polystyrene double-layer composite capillary core is obtained through
sintering and washing; and the porous wood fiber / polystyrene
composite material capillary core and the porous copper-wood fiber / polystyrene double-layer composite capillary core are superimposed and composite,a porous copper core is close to the
evaporation end of the
loop heat pipe, and the
porous composite material capillary core is close to a compensation chamber of the
loop heat pipe. According to the porous copper-wood fiber / polystyrene double-layer composite capillary core for the loop
heat pipe and the preparation method thereof, the double-layer composite capillary core is applied to the loop
heat pipe, internal heat and
mass transfer can be enhanced, gradient
heat resistance can be formed in the radial direction, back
heat leakage is reduced, the
operating temperature of the loop
heat pipe is effectively reduced, a
phase change interface is stabilized, and therefore the operating performance of the loop heat
pipe is improved.
