Heat-pipes for electronic devices and evaluation of their thermal performance

This paper reports on the performance of miniature heat-pipes developed for cooling of electronic equipment, and on evaluating the notebook computer cooling systems in which they are used. Experiments for the miniature heat-pipe were conducted on their thermal properties and reliability. The results indicate the miniature heat-pipe can be applied to electronic equipment cooling. Evaluating tests of the cooling system using this miniature heat-pipe have clarified the effectiveness of the miniature heat-pipe
