Heat pipes are thermal super-conductors. The effective thermal conductivity varies with heat pipe length, and can approach 100,000 W/m K for long heat pipes, in comparison with approximately 400 W/m K for copper. At the hot interface of a heat pipe a liquid in contact with a thermally conductive solid surface turns into a vapor by absorbing heat from that surface. Vapor then travels along the heat pipe to the cold interface and condenses back into liquid - releasing the latent heat. Liquid then returns to the hot interface through either capillary action, centrifugal force, or gravity, and the cycle repeats.

Reliability is very important for many heat pipe applications. Rego's heat pipes go through many rigid quality tests to assure its performance. Our quality assurance tests includes,
-Thermal Cycle Test
-Burn-In Test
-Helium Leakage Test

Rego offers a full range of heat pipes from ø3 to ø10 mm, length from 80 up to 600mm. Flattened heat pipes are available from a minimum thickness of 2.0mm to any lager thickness and round type. You can choose the appropriate heat pipes in diameter, length and flattened thickness according to your design. Send us your drawing. Let's make it work!
