Simulation and Experimental Investigation of Thermal Performance of a Miniature Flat Plate Heat Pipe

This paper presents the results of a CFD analysis and experimental tests of two identical miniature flat plate heat pipes (FPHP) using sintered and screen mesh wicks and a comparative analysis and measurement of two solid copper base plates 1 mm and 3 mm thick. It was shown that the design of the mi...
