Description

In response to NASA SBIR Topic S1.09, Thermal Control Systems, ThermAvant Technologies, LLC proposes to develop high conductance cryogenic oscillating heat pipes for space applications.nbsp; Working fluids will be investigated at temperatures between 14 K and 190 K.nbsp; The oscillating heat pipes will be developed in a range of geometries to demonstrate high effective thermal conductivities in complex 3D geometries.nbsp; Specifically, ThermAvant aims to develop oscillating heat pipes that can handle heat fluxes up to and above 5 W/cm2 with power levels up to 100 W over distances of up to 1 m with effective thermal conductivities gt;100,000 W/mK.
