Heat Pipe
Can Heat in a Mechanism Be Dissipated Using a Heat Pipe?
A heat pipe operates by utilizing the principle of two-phase change, where the medium inside absorbs heat during liquid-to-vapor transformation and releases heat during vapor-to-liquid transformation. This process allows for rapid heat absorption and release, effectively transferring heat to another location.
However, it’s important to note that heat pipes are part of a larger heat sink system and should be considered a thermal conductivity element, not a heat dissipation element. Simply placing one end of a heat pipe on the heat source without a heat sink or surface for heat dissipation on the other end will render it ineffective.
