ELECTRONIC HEAT PIPE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F28D15/00 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: electronic heat pipe includes an evaporator, a steam pipeline, a heat exchanger-cooler, a steam pipeline, with a cathode which acts as the evaporator, consisting of the pipeline element made of conductive material with an emissive layer applied on its inner surface made of material with low electronic work function, the anode acts as the heat exchanger-cooler, consisting of the pipeline element made of conductive material and the electron perception layer applied on its inner surface made of the material with low electronic work function, at that the anode is being electrically connected to the cathode in series through the power consumer. In this case, the cathode outlet is hydraulically connected through the steam pipeline to the anode inlet, and the anode outlet is hydraulically connected in series through the condenser pipeline, the return valve and the power transmission device to the working body, for example, the pump, to the similar cathode inlet, and the piping elements, made of non-conductive material, act as the steam pipeline.

EFFECT: invention allows to reduce the electronic heat pipe mass, and to increase its speed, reliability and durability.
