Abstract

Most of the intuition on which the design of current two-phase thermal management devices, such as heat pipes, is based on studies of convection at atmospheric conditions. The strength of the two main forces driving convection, buoyancy and thermocapillarity, is most commonly described in terms of the nondimensional parameters
