Effect of processing parameters on the properties of freeze-cast Ni wick with gradient porosity
Wicks are the main component of Loop Heat Pipe systems, whereby coolant liquid flow through their porous structure. They are usually formed by a primary wick to produce liquid transportation by capillary force, and a secondary wick that is continuously wetted by the liquid coolant. Traditionally, th...
