High-Acceleration Performance of the Flat Swinging Heat Pipe

摘要

The Flat Swinging Heat Pipe (FSHP) is a new cooling concept aiming at cooling of high power electronics at different acceleration loads, ranging from zero to ten times the earth's gravitation. The FSHP combines high heat transfer rates with the capability to withstand and operate under "any" acceleration condition. This paper briefly outlines the basic working principle of The FSHP, and describes the experiments and tests at Normal gravity both in a prototype high-g FSHP and in a Glass experimental FSHP.
