Abstract
Wicking structures based on interior corner geometry as the fundamental transport mechanism have been studied in microgravity environments. These structures provide for highly efficient passive transport that can be exploited in advanced two-phase passive cooling systems for applications in areas such as thermal control for microelectronics. Several pilot designs have been manufactured and tested and their performance is reported.
