Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a space cooling technology, which is suitable for heat transfer in an outer space environment without the participation of gaseous media such as air in weightlessness, and specifically relates to a capillary pump circuit heat pipe capable of working in outer space and a working method. Background technique [0002] With the development of space technology, the energy consumption of devices working in space tends to be high-power, and the working time tends to be long-term, which is accompanied by greater energy demand, and no matter what form of energy, it will eventually have to Leaving the space device in the form of heat, if the heat cannot be dissipated in time, it will inevitably lead to an increase in the temperature of the heat-generating element and its surroundings, causing irreversible damage to the working element. Since there is no air convection in space and no external matter conducts heat, the only way to dissipa...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] Capillary pump loop heat pipes have many advantages, but traditional capillary pump heat pipes still have defects: heat leakage of the evaporator leads to a decrease in heat transfer capacity or even deterioration of heat transfer; the contradiction between high capillary force and high permeability on the pore size requirements; the start-up process with apparent overheating
