Two concepts integrate heat-pipe technology. Probe with heat-pipe cooled jacket is self-contained, passive, and has no moving parts, unlike conventional air and water cooled probes. It is used in hostile, high temperature environments like wind tunnels and powerplants or on high-speed research and hypersonic cruise vehicles. Heat-pipe sandwich panel combines structural efficiency of sandwich with thermal efficiency of heat-pipe. It is used to eliminate thermal gradients and stresses, minimize thermal distortions, and transfer heat from one face of panel to other.
