Abstract
Heat transfer magangment is present issue which is progressively increasing importance in line with technology. Effective thermal management is needed to serve to the present trends of power & flux level of upcoming micro devices. This article describes the development of flat plate oscillating heat pipe (FP-OHP) as new entry in the family of two phase heat transfer system.As a unique heat transfer device, flat plate oscillating heat pipe has been considered have a smart prospect due to its advantages: simple fabrication methods & structure, low cost & outstanding heat transfer capability.The development of FP-OHP application is founded on the basis of experimental and theoretical research on two phase heat transfer in FP-OHP. With substantial expectation of FP-OHP application in the coming years, this article attempts to review the development of FP-OHP products. Simultaneously, some favorable and innovative applications of FP-OHP are also studied. This article is predicted to provide fundamental reference for future researcher.
