A heat pipe assembly comprises a female heat pipe comprising at least one open end; and at least one male heat pipe. The at least one male heat pipe includes an inserting end where the inserting end of the at least one male heat pipe is able to be movably inserted into an open end of the female heat pipe. An electronic device using the heat pipe assembly is also provided.

A furnace assembly for use with a gas fuel that includes a cabinet and a burner located in the cabinet that is operable to ignite the gas fuel. The furnace also includes a heat exchanger assembly in communication with the burner and open to receiving the ignited gas fuel, the heat exchanger assembly including tubes. Each tube includes a first section with an inlet, a horizontal section having a first internal diameter, and a vertical section. Each tube also includes a second section extending from the first section and having a second internal diameter less than the first internal dimeter. The second section also includes a serpentine flow path up and down in the vertical direction and an outlet. The gas fuel entering a tube stays in the tube until flowing out of the tube. The furnace also includes a blower operable to move air through the cabinet and over the heat exchanger assembly.

A heat dissipation module used for an electronic device is provided. The electronic device has a heat source. The heat dissipation module includes an evaporator, a pipe, and a working fluid. The evaporator has a recess at an exterior surface thereof, and is thermally contacted with the heat source to absorb heat generated from the heat source. The pipe is connected to an inner space of the evaporator and forms a loop. The working fluid is filled in the loop, wherein the working fluid in liquid passes through the evaporator, absorbs heat, and is transformed into vapor to flow out of the evaporator.

A method of forming an assembly between a panel and a tube includes forming a hole in the panel, where a diameter of the hole is smaller than an outer diameter of the tube, and preforming a first end of the tube to conceal the hole of the panel. A diameter of the preformed portion is greater than the diameter of the hole and the outer diameter of the tube. The method further includes aligning a second end of the tube with the hole of the panel, followed by inserting the tube into the hole by application of axial force on the tube until the preformed first end of the tube abuts a periphery of the hole of the panel. The method also includes achieving an interference fit between the hole of the panel and the tube.

Disclosed herein is a heat exchanger apparatus comprising a heat exchanger tube having an inlet valve and an outlet valve. When the valves are open, the refrigerant can flow through the heat exchanger tube, and when the valves are closed, refrigerant can be stored in the heat exchanger tube, thereby reducing the effective heat exchange surface area of the heat exchanger apparatus.

A heat exchanger that includes an input cavity defined by inlet cavity walls; a heat exchanger portion in fluid communication with the input cavity and defined between a first side and a second side, and wherein a plurality of baffles are positioned within the heat exchanger portion; and an outlet cavity in fluid communication with the heat exchanger portion and defined by outlet cavity walls. The heat exchanger portion comprises: a plurality of first fluid paths defined between the baffles and extending from the input cavity to the outlet cavity, and a plurality of tubes extending through the heat exchanger portion from the first side to the second side. Each tube extends through the baffles so as to define a second fluid path through the heat exchanger portion. Heat exchanger systems are also generally provided, along with methods for cooling a hot fluid input with a heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger includes a case, a first and second heat exchanger disposed inside the case, a partition member disposed inside the case, and a duct. The case has a first side wall and a second side wall spaced apart from and facing each other in a first direction, a third side wall and a fourth side wall spaced apart from and facing each other in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and a bottom wall. A gas outlet communicating with an interior of the case is formed in the first side wall. The first heat exchanger is farther from the bottom wall than the second heat exchanger in a third direction orthogonal to the first and second directions. The second heat exchanger includes meandering heat transfer tubes meandering within a plane orthogonal to the first direction and overlapping along the first direction.

Provided herein are components for a fluid network modified for one or more objective functions of interest such as pressure drop, erosion rate, fouling, coke deposition and operating costs.
