The present invention is related to a thin heat dissipation device and a method for manufacturing the same. The device of the present invention mainly comprises a hollow body having an enclosed chamber and a working fluid with which the enclosed chamber is filled. The enclosed chamber comprises a first fluid channel and a second fluid channel. The first and second fluid channels extend in the longitudinal direction of the hollow body, are juxtaposed in the width direction of the hollow body and communicated with each other, and an interface between the first fluid channel and the second fluid channel has a height of about 0.1 mm or less. As such, a novel capillary structure which is capable of greatly reducing the entire thickness, enhancing heat transfer efficiency and reducing cost and which is reliable and durable is provided.

A method of constructing a coil wound heat exchange module and transporting and installing the coil wound heat exchange module at a plant site, such as an natural gas liquefaction plant. A module frame is constructed and attached to a heat exchanger shell prior to telescoping of a coil wound mandrel into the shell. The module frame includes a lug and two saddles that remain attached to the shell throughout the process and when the heat exchanger is operated. The lug and saddles are constructed and located to stabilize the shell during construction, telescoping and transport (when in a horizontal orientation), and when the shell is installed at the plant site (in a vertical orientation). The lugs and saddles are adapted to allow for thermal expansion and contraction of the shell when it is transitioned from ambient to operating temperature and vice versa.

A structure of heat pipe with adjustable working temperature range are provided. The heat pipe includes a tube, a capillary structure and a working liquid. The tube includes a passage having a length direction and a diameter direction. Besides, a part of the tube has a pressed deformation zone in the pipe diameter direction, and the pressed cross-sectional area of the deformation zone in the diameter direction is reduced by a reduction ratio with respect to an original cross-sectional area before pressing, so that the deformation zone has a higher fluid resistance. Thereby, the heat pipe can be operated under a certain working temperature range, and the working object can achieve the working efficiency.

A method for manufacturing boiler tubes includes the steps of removing end caps from a plurality of tubes, the plurality of tubes including at least a first tube and a second tube, cleaning an outer surface of the first tube and the second tube, forming a weld preparation on an upstream end of the first tube, forming a weld preparation on a downstream end of the second tube, welding the upstream end of the first tube to the downstream end of the second tube to form a butt weld, to produce a long tube, and with an automated device, measuring a parameter of at least the first tube and the second tube. The steps of removing the end caps, cleaning the outer surface of the tubes, forming the weld preparations, welding the first tube to the second tube, and measuring the parameter are performed autonomously.
