Flexible heat pipe with composite wick

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a flexible heat pipe with a composite wick, comprising a sequentially connected evaporation section tube body, adiabatic section tube body, and condensation section tube body; wherein the evaporation section tube body, the adiabatic section tube body and the condensation section tube body are provided with a composite wick and a working fluid; the composite wick comprises mesh layers and zinc oxide/graphene composite particle layers; the composite wick of the adiabatic section tube body is provided with an elastic element; and the adiabatic section tube body is made of polyurethane material. The present disclosure effectively solves the technical problem that the heat pipe in the existing technology is a rigid structure, and a single-structure wick cannot meet the three core requirements of high capillary force, high permeability, and high thermal conductivity at the same time, resulting in limited heat-transfer performance of the heat pipe.
