Description
This presentation describes current status and future prospect of R&D activities on two-phase heat transport technology of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). In addition to passive thermal control devices such as a loop heat pipe (LHP) and an oscillating heat pipe (OHP), R&D activities of active thermal control devices such as two-phase mechanical pumped loop are conducted. Active thermal control devices are expected to construct the innovative thermal control system for high heat-dissipation satellites and components or scientific instruments requiring precise temperature control. The overview of R&D activities related to two-phase mechanical pumped loop is also introduced in this presentation.
