Thermal control system with heat pipes and solid sorption coolers.

Summary

A new type of two-phase thermal control system insensitive to some "g" acceleration is suggested for space and ground applications. This system is composed of a loop heat pipe (LHP), or capillary pumped loop (CPL) and a solid sorption cooler (SSC). The essential feature of this system is that LHP and SSC are connected to the same evaporator, but work alternatively.
