Abstract: 

Heat pipe is a thermo mechanical device which is employed to get thermal equilibrium where huge no of electronic equipments are present like in space ship, satellite etc. which is very necessary to temperature to certain predetermined level unless which there may a higher chances of malfunctioning of system. Heat pipes are very good at maintaining thermal equilibrium, transferring heat form one point to other in large acceptable distance with a small heat drop. Heat pipes(HP) are somewhat comparatively not complicated for design, fabrication and controlling them can done effectively with adequate knowledge of heat pipe, also they can arranged in any direction which is an added advantage. Here some design aspects, modeling of heat pipe, analysis is done to effective and optimum fabrication of heat pipe for space applications.
