A loop heat pipe (LHP) is a two-phase heat transfer device that uses capillary action to remove heat from a source and passively move it to a condenser or radiator. LHPs are similar to heat pipes but have the advantage of being able to provide reliable operation over long distance and the ability to operate against gravity. They can transport a large heat load over a long distance with a small temperature difference.[1][2] Different designs of LHPs ranging from powerful, large size LHPs to miniature LHPs (micro-loop heat pipe) have been developed and successfully employed in a wide sphere of applications both ground and space-based applications.
