Boyd Additive Manufactured Heat Pipe Technology: Introduction to Additive Manufactured Heat Pipes and New Thermal Solutions Coming to Market
●Overview
■This paper introduces additive manufactured (AM) heat pipes and other advanced thermal management technologies, previously presented as a Keynote Lecture at the 16th UK Heat Transfer Conference at the University of Nottingham.
■Boyd and its research partners developed additive manufactured heat pipes utilizing laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) techniques to form titanium heat pipe vessels with integrated miniaturized lattice capillary wick structures. The article covers an overview of this technology, its development through the European Space Agency (ESA), and an Innovate UK project., The technology includes a titanium-ammonia space mini-heat pipe assembly and a titanium-water two phase heat pipe vapor chamber. Additionally, the paper addresses various other custom thermal management solutions and technologies for next-generation electronic applications in the Space, Aerospace, high-end Automotive, and eMobility markets. Commercial examples of heat pipe technology, ultra-thin vapor chambers, vacuum brazed liquid cold plate technology, and encapsulated graphite technology are also included in this overview.
