Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to enhanced heat transfer and energy-saving technologies, in particular to the preparation of a non-uniform wettability high-efficiency phase-change coating and a gravity heat pipe device. Background technique

[0002] Gravity heat pipe is composed of tube shell and working fluid. Its internal structure is divided into evaporation section, adiabatic section and condensation section from bottom to top. Compared with other types of heat pipes, since there is no liquid-absorbing core, it has a simple structure and is easy to process, so it is widely used in aerospace, military and other industries. Since it was introduced into the radiator manufacturing industry, people have changed the design ideas of traditional radiators. The commonly used gravity heat pipe is a closed gravity heat pipe. Its working principle is: first, a certain amount of working fluid is charged in the evaporation section, and the inside of the closed heat pip...
