Guide to Simulation of Vapor Chambers as Anisotropic Conduction Heat Spreaders
Introduction Vapor chambers are passive two-phase devices used to spread heat from localized hotspots to larger surface areas. The device utilizes the latent heat of evaporation of an internal fluid to passively transport heat from the evaporator (heat source) to the condenser (heat sink) across very low-temperature drops. Condensed liquid returns to the evaporator from the … [Read more...]
