Results of investigation into the influence of a corrosion process on thermotechnical characteristics of heat pipes of low-temperature range are given. The reasons for the change in the thermotechnical characteristics of heat pipes manufactured from copper with various heat-transfer agents during their long-term functioning are considered and analyzed. The obtained data are in satisfactory agreement with the presented models of the corrosion process.
