Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of heat transfer of heat pipes, and specifically relates to a testing device and a testing method for the limit heat flux density of a porous material for a heat pipe. Background technique [0002] With the development of electronic products in the direction of miniaturization, light weight and multi-function, the heat dissipation problem of electronic products has become more and more prominent. Traditional heat dissipation methods include metal heat sinks and air convection, but these methods have gradually been unable to meet the heat dissipation requirements of electronic products, and there is an urgent need for a stronger heat dissipation method. [0003] When the heat pipe is working, the working fluid in the pipe undergoes a phase change, and the latent heat of the phase change is transferred through the heat pipe. Generally, the thermal conductivity of a heat pipe is 100 to 10,000 times that of pure coppe...

Problems solved by technology

However, the simple channel structure also has some disadvantages: due to the large capillary radius, the capillary pressure it generates is small; when the heat pipe is partially overheated and partially burnt out, the viscosity limit will suddenly appear, causing the temperature of the heat pipe to rise rapidly and the heat pipe to burn out;

[0008] However, due to the too small permeability, the working fluid will produce a large pressure loss when passing through the sintered capillary core;

[0009] 3. The capillary pressure of the wire mesh capillary core is in the middle, and the permeability is small, so the working fluid will have a large pressure loss, and its thermal resistance is...
