Working Principle of a Heat Pipe

1

Heat Absorption: Heat is absorbed at the evaporator section, causing the working fluid inside the heat pipe to vaporize.

2

Heat Transfer: The vaporized fluid moves through the pipe to a cooler section, typically the condenser.

3

Heat Release: At the condenser, the vapor releases its heat, condensing back into a liquid.

4

Fluid Return: The liquid returns to the evaporator via capillary action, gravity, or wick structures, repeating the cycle.
