Abstract:
A heat pipe includes a binary working fluid including a composition proximate to and less than or equal to the azeotropic point in a thermodynamic phase diagram as a function of the composition of the binary working fluid. Moreover, in a liquid phase of the binary working fluid, a boiling point of the binary working fluid as a function of temperature and the composition in the thermodynamic phase diagram is approximately constant. For example, the boiling point may vary by less than a degree Celsius over a range of compositions proximate to and less than or equal to the azeotropic point. Furthermore, components in the binary working fluid may be fully miscible as a function of the temperature and the composition in the thermodynamic phase diagram, a component in the binary working fluid may include a non-zero dipole moment, and/or the component may form a hydrogen bond with water.
