I am trying to figure out how to make a heat pipe without having the correct materials.
this is a design for a "Two Pipe" heat pipe, that i saw on the web, but i still did not at all understand.
So i had to draw up some sort of logic for doing it, and this is what i have so far.
the "vapor" will make it Easily through the small holes, but the fluid heading back , which i assume is recondenced into a liquid, would head down the cooler middle pipe, that is Connected TO the cool side of the thing.
this Wickless, will ONLY work with the heat source at the bottom , and the cooling of the heat at the top.
i put in a top view so you could see that the holes in the inner pipe are not all the way around.
i have no idea what i am doing, but i used the logic of the principal, to create this picture, i would probably make it FLAT not round. as my project would prefer a nice big flat wide one anyways.
i was trying to understand the principal.
other questions
is the top (vapor condencing side) going to be hotter than the heat input side ?
what if the top becomes a Expander instead (liquid goes up center tube and expands, and cools), doent that then do the exact opposite?
i am so confused, its a CLOSED system, with no pump, it cant possibly work
