ISOTHERMAL HEAT PIPE SYSTEM

摘要

Apparatus for transferring heat from a primary heated fluid isothermally to divers portions of a different medium to be heated, comprising: container means for containing a volatile liquid in an enclosed chamber; a volatile liquid in said container means; distribution means for distributing vapor of said volatile liquid to divers portions of said medium to be heated, said distribution means including a plurality of elongated extensions of said container means connected in fluid-flow relation to and extending outwardly from a portion of said container means above the level of said volatile liquid in said container means into divers portions of said medium to be heated in spaced-apart relation to each other in such a manner that there is a continuous downward gradient in each of said extensions from the distal end thereof to said container means; and heat exchanger means in said container means for transferring heat from the primary heated fluid to the volatile liquid in said container means.
