<p>A heat exchange apparatus comprising a heat pipe (2) having a body (4) containing a working fluid is disclosed. The working fluid is adapted to evaporate as a result of heating of a first part of the body and to condense as a result of cooling of a second part of the body. The container comprises a grooved wick structure (6), adapted to transport the working fluid in liquid state from the second part towards the first part; and a vapour channel (8) adapted to allow the working fluid to move in vapour state from the first location towards the second location. The wick structure is formed from at least one material containing at least one alloy including magnesium, 1% to 2.5% by weight manganese, and up to 2.5% by weight zinc.</p> |
