Abstract:
A heat pipe that includes a pipe casing, a porous wick, and sealing members. Both end portions of the pipe casing are sealed by the sealing members, respectively. The sealing members each comprise a first metal foil and an intermetallic compound phase. The inside of the pipe casing is filled with a working fluid. The porous wick generates capillarity for the working fluid by a plurality of pores. The porous wick is provided inside the pipe casing. As a result, the pipe casing and the porous wick form a cavity extending in a longitudinal direction of the pipe casing. The porous wick comprises first metal grains, second metal grains, and an intermetallic compound phase.
