Summary

A three-dimensional steady-state model for predicting heat transfer in a micro heat pipe array is presented. Three coupled models, solving the microregion equations, the two-dimensional wall heat conduction problem and the longitudinal capillary two-phase flow have been developed. The results, presented for an aluminium/ammonia triangular micro heat pipe array, show that the major part of the total heat input in the evaporator section goes through the microregion.
