Abstract

Due to larger amount of heat transfer and compact system requirement in modern industries, there should be such a device with enhanced heat transfer rate. Heat pipe with proper working medium is modern trends to enhance heat transfer coefficient. This article mainly deals with cylindrical heat pipe of different wick structures, different types of working medium and recent development. Major three wick structures namely screen mesh, sintered and grooved types were discussed. Detailed analysis of various working mediums were carried out. Recently heat pipes were widely using in various applications like electronic item cooling, refrigeration system, aerospace, compact heat exchanges, phase change material (PCMs) with heat pipe, micro reactor etc.
