Thermodynamics
... When a system gains heat, the internal energy of the system increases. Q is positive when a system gains heat and negative when a system loses heat. Internal energy of a system can decrease if the system does work on its surroundings. Work is positive when it is done by the system and negative when ...

Heat pipe
A heat pipe is a heat-transfer device that combines the principles of both thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the transfer of heat between two solid interfaces.At the hot interface of a heat pipe a liquid in contact with a thermally conductive solid surface turns into a vapor by absorbing heat from that surface. The vapor then travels along the heat pipe to the cold interface and condenses back into a liquid - releasing the latent heat. The liquid then returns to the hot interface through either capillary action, centrifugal force, or gravity, and the cycle repeats. Due to the very high heat transfer coefficients for boiling and condensation, heat pipes are highly effective thermal conductors. The effective thermal conductivity varies with heat pipe length, and can approach 7002100000000000000♠100 kW/(m⋅K) for long heat pipes, in comparison with approximately 6999400000000000000♠0.4 kW/(m⋅K) for copper.
