This book presents the fundamental fluid flow and heat transfer principles occurring in oscillating heat pipes and also provides updated developments and recent innovations in research and applications of heat pipes. Starting with a general presentation of conventional heat pipes, the focus is on thermally-excited oscillating motion and its heat transfer enhancement in a two-phase heat transfer system. The book covers thermodynamic analysis, theoretical models of oscillating motion, evaporation and condensation phenomena and the use of advanced signal analytical tools for temperature oscillation. The importance of thermally-excited oscillating motion combined with phase change heat transfer to a wide variety of applications is emphasized. This book is an essential resource and learning tool for senior undergraduate, graduate students, practicing engineers, researchers and scientists working in the area of heat pipes.§§This book also:§§Includes detailed descriptions on how an oscillating heat pipe is fabricated, tested, and utilized§§Covers fundamentals of oscillating flow and heat transfer in an oscillating heat pipe§§Provides application samples of oscillating heat pipes in the field of thermal management§
