"18% smaller, 1.6X increased heat transport, 4X increased heat transfer efficiency... thin, long wide, porous wick draws fluid using capillary action vaporizing on wick's surface, heat transported 2.5m to condenser releasing heat, condensing back into liquid, returning to cycle again,... parallel wicks/ channels increase capacity... thin wick enable less pressure drop/ lower operating temperature... industrial waste heat recovery, solar heat utilization, EV thermal management (especially for inverter), data center cooling"
