Experiments have been performed to find an optimum filling quantity of working fluid in a heat pipe. The optimum operation has been defined to give a minimum temperature difference between evaporator and condenser. The experimental results show that there exists an optimum filling quantity which is slightly smaller than that calculated by the well known formula from the geometry of the wick. When the concaved vapor-liquid interface at the wick is taken into account to calculate the required quantity of working fluid, the computed value agrees with the experimentally determined quantity.

This paper is to research the heat transfer characteristic performance of the copper-water heat pipe with the screen wicks. Recently, the semiconductor capacity of an electronic unit has been larger, on the contrary, its size has been much smaller. As a result, a high-performance cooling system is needed. Experimental variables are inclination angles, temperatures of cooling water and the mesh number of screen wicks. The distilled water was used for the working fluid. At the inclination angle $6^{\circ}$ in top heat mode, the two layers of the 100-mesh screen wick showed the best heat transfer performance. The thermal resistance of the two layers with the 100-mesh screen was 0.7~$0.8^{\circ}C$/W.

The heat flux on a chip is rapidly increasing with decreasing the size of one. It is necessary to properly cool the high heat flux chip. One of the promising cooling methods is to apply CPL heat pipes with porous materials, for example PVA, polyethylene, and powder sintered metal plate and with microchannels in the evaporator. A small scale CPL heat pipe with PVA as wick was designed and manufactured. Since the height difference between the evaporator and the condenser is a crucial parameter in the CPL heat pipes, the performance of the heat pipes depending on the parameter was investigated. The parameter is higher the performance is better. However, the improvement rate of the performance does not increase the increase rate of the height. In addition to, the parameter effect depending on heat input was investigated.

We derive discrete time model of the geometric fractional Brownian motion. It provides numerical pricing scheme of financial derivatives when the market is driven by geometric fractional Brownian motion. With the convergence analysis, we guarantee the convergence of Monte Carlo simulations. The strong convergence rate of our scheme has order H which is Hurst parameter. To obtain our model we need to convert Wick product term of stochastic differential equation into Wick free discrete equation through Malliavin calculus but ours does not include Malliavin derivative term. Finally, we include several numerical experiments for the option pricing.

For use of the thermal cycle of the biochemical fluid sample, the isothermal temperature source with a large surface area was designed, fabricated and its thermal characterization was experimentally evaluated. The comprehensive overview of the technology trend on the temperature control devices was detailed. The large surface area isothermal temperature source was realized by using the vapor chamber heat spreader. The cost-effectiveness and simple manufacturing process were achieved by using the metal-etched wick structure. The temperature distribution was quantitatively investigated by using IR temperature imaging system at equivalent temperatures to the PCR thermal cycle. The standard deviation was measured to be within 0.7$^{\circ}C$ for each temperature cycle. This concludes that the presented isothermal temperature source enables no temperature gradient inside bio-sample fluid. Furthermore it can be applied to the cooling of the electronic devices due to its slimness and low thermal spreading resistance.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of energy transport using capillary pumped loop with PVA sponge wick. The results obtained from this study are as follows. The configuration of capillary pumped loop was adequate and PVA sponge was of great use for the manufacture of capillary pump. The energy transport reached maximum when the working fluid amount was 750cc the wall temperature distribution indicated high values through out the entire length of the pipe. As the opening of a nozzle was increased, energy transport was increased but the effect was decreased.

The present study proposes a new structure for a flat plate heat pipe which could embody a thin thickness, any shapes and high heat density a unit area. It is on the structure for the formation of vapor passages and the support of the case of the flat plate heat pipe. A screen mesh is used as the one. To verify the validity of the one, the flat plate heat pipe of 1.08mm thickness was made with a layer of the screen mesh with 14 and 100 mesh number respectively and tested. Here the screen mesh with 14 mesh number plays a role of the vapor passage and the support of the case and the screen mesh with 100 mesh number functions as the wick structure. T he results show that the screen mesh excellently carries out the function of the vapor passage and the support of the case.

This study has been performed to investigate the thermal performance of variable conductance heat pipe (VCHP) with screen meshed wick. The active length of condenser section in a VCHP is varied by non-condensible gas, which controls the operating temperature, and the heat capacity of VCHP is controlled by the operating temperature. In this study, numerical analysis of the VCHP based on the diffusion model of non-condensible gas is done for the thermal control performance of VCHP. Water is used as a working fluid and nitrogen as a control non-condensible gas in the copper tube. As a result, the thermal conductance of VCHP has been compared with that of constant conductance heat pipe (CCHP) corresponding to the variation of operating temperature.

This these was conducted to investigate tile characteristics of a frozen start up for a VCHP which has water as a working fluid and Nitrogen as a non-condensible gas. The tested heat pipe was made of a copper tube with the outer diameter of 12.7 mm, the length of 340 mm, and the sintered metal wick had the thickness of 0.7 mm. This experiment was conflicted under the thermal load, inclined angle and cooling conditions.
