Abstract
A loop heat pipe structure includes an evaporator internally defining a vaporization chamber, in which a first wick structure is provided and a working fluid is filled; at least one vapor pipe having a first end and a second end, and the first end being communicable with an end of the evaporator; and at least one liquid pipe having a third end and a fourth end, the third end being communicable with the second end of the at least one vapor pipe and forming a condensing section, and the fourth end being communicable with another end of the evaporator. The evaporator, the at least one vapor pipe and the at least one liquid pipe together form a loop for the working fluid; and a grand total cross sectional area of the at least one vapor pipe is larger than that of the at least one liquid pipe.
