Abstract

This study is to research the heat transfer characteristics in copper-water heat pipes with screen wick, #100. Recently, the semiconductor capacity of an electronic unit has been larger, on the contrary, its size is smaller than before. As a result, a high-performance cooling system is needed. Experimental variables are inclination angle and temperature of cooling water. The distilled water was used for the working fluid. At a inclination angle ${-6}^{\circ}$, #100 2layer screen mesh is shown the best heat transfer performance.
