Features: This book is one of the most important and up-to-date works on heat pipe technology both domestically and internationally. It briefly introduces the development and current status of heat pipes, as well as an overview of heat pipe technology. It systematically and concisely covers the theory of heat management, the heat transfer limits of heat pipes, and the characteristics of various types of heat pipes. It focuses on the research achievements of heat pipes from the author's institution, the design of heat pipes and heat pipe heat exchangers (including examples), and the manufacturing of heat pipes. It systematically introduces the principles and application examples of heat pipe technology, covering industrial fields such as chemical engineering, petrochemicals, building materials, light industry, metallurgy, power generation, and electronic appliances. Nearly 60 engineering application examples in the book are mostly the latest research and development achievements both domestically and internationally, and a significant portion has been tested in industrial operations for a long time, demonstrating promotional value. Among them, the research on applications such as carbon steel-water heat pipe heat exchangers and high-temperature heat pipe air-air heat exchangers is at the forefront of international development, reflecting the characteristics of China's heat pipe technology development and research. Engineers and technicians can quickly master the core content of heat pipe technology through this book and creatively apply it in their professional work. Some parts of the book have been used as elective teaching materials for senior undergraduate students for many years, so it can also serve as a reference book for relevant disciplines.
