Abstract
An analytical review of the operation of rotating, non-capillary
heat pipes is presented, including a discussion of film condensation
on the inside of a rotating, truncated cone. Predicted results so
far obtained indicate that the heat transfer capability of rotating,
non-capillary heat pipes depends upon condenser performance and is
substantially higher than the capability of conventional, wicklimited
heat pipes.
The design and manufacture of an experimental rotating heat pipe apparatus is also described.
