Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020252555A1] An efficient heat transfer device that can he suitable for mass production is proposed. The heat transfer device comprises: - an evaporation region. - a condensation region. - a vapor channel extending from the evaporation region to the condensation region, and - a porous structure extending from the condensation region to the evaporation region. The porous structure comprises a sequence of segments including at least i) a first segment in the evaporation region and it) a second segment in the condensation region. The first segment has a first effective pore size, and the second segment has a second effective pore size that is larger than the first effective pore size. A method for manufacturing a heat transfer device is also disclosed.
