Abstract
With a specified pressure distribution, an analytical investigation was conducted to explore the flow and heat transfer characteristics in an evaporator porous wicking structure of a flat heat pipe. The boundary effect on the flow rate is more significant than the inertia, and both the boundary and inertia effects exert very little influence on fluid layer thickness and velocity distribution. The bottom of the porous layer is at a quite uniform temperature, and the heat flux is almost normal to the solid boundary. ยฉ 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
