Resumo

A purposeful study of the heat exchange process and peculiarities of two-phase system hydrodynamics plays a significant role in manufacturing highly effective heat pipes, the utilization of which has become an acute necessity in various branches of modern engineering. A combination of experimental and analytical data, particularly the one obtained under conditions of external actions upon the processes of boiling and condensation, as well as on the heat carrier transport, is efficient for revealing the advantages of the combined evaporating and condensating systems (ECS), optimizing their design and regimes.
