微小型热管的研究现状与进展

Status and Recent Progress of Research on Micro/Miniature Heat Pipes

通过就微小型热管的研究现状以及最新进展从单根微型热管、微型热管阵列以及微槽平板热管三个方面进行了系统地回顾。归纳了微小型热管的传热极限;总结了微小型热管研究一致公认的结论以及微小型热管研究所面临的困难和挑战。证明了微小型热管在微电子器件冷却等微小空间散热方面有着广阔的应用前景。

A literary review related to micro/miniature heat pipes is presented ever since the introduction of the concept of micro heat pipe. Both the theoretical and experimental research of micro/miniature heat pipes, including single micro heat pipe, heat pipe array and flat miniature heat pipes, are reviewed respectively. The heat transfer limitations of micro/miniature heat pipes are also surveyed at the same time. In the end, the consistently recognized research conclusions and the difficulties and challenges in the micro/miniature heat pipes research are summarized. It is proved that the micro/miniature heat pipes are promising for the use of small - room heat dissipation such as the cooling of micro electronic apparatus.
