Heat pipes are highly efficient thermal devices capable of transferring energy over both short
and long spans. In recent times, heat pipes have aroused to have enormous interest among …

One salient feature of the heat pipe system is its superior heat transfer efficiency, which
allows the transfer of significant amount of heat at near-zero temperature difference. In …

The rapid advancement of high-performance electronic devices and high-capacity energy
storage has prompted the development of ultra-thin heat pipes with a higher heat transfer …

Geothermal energy has undoubtedly been considered a promising low-carbon resource in
future energy supply responding to the rising energy demand and severe climate concerns …

Deicers ensure safe mobility across roadways in winter. Despite their advantages, deicers
deteriorate concrete and are hence detrimental to concrete pavements and bridge decks …

ABSTRACT A super-long flexible thermosyphon (SFTS) fabricated by the corrugated pipe,
with a total length up to 32m, was field-tested in a drilling, in order to evaluate its potential for …

This study investigates the thermal performance of three super-long flexible thermosyphons
(SFTSs) fabricated using metal corrugated-pipe under shallow geothermal conditions …

Electric heating methods have been proven to be effective means to melt ice on sidewalks
and bridge decks. However, sidewalks are covered with permeable concrete bricks …

Geothermal thermosyphons (GTs) are increasingly used in many heating and cooling
geothermal applications, owing to their high heat transfer performance. In this paper a …

Hydronic pavement heating and cooling applications have been well established to provide
road safety over the past two decades. However, most of the systems run on asphalt, only a …
