Abstract
Embodiments for a heat pipe heat flux rectifier are provided. One embodiment includes a first curved diode heat pipe that includes an adiabatic section that includes a curved portion, an evaporator section that is coupled to the adiabatic section, and a condenser section that is coupled to the adiabatic section. In some embodiments, the first curved diode heat pipe includes a non-condensable gas reservoir that is coupled to the condenser section for storing non-condensable gas, where the first curved diode heat pipe stores a fluid and a wicking material. In some embodiments, the first curved diode heat pipe operates as a thermal conductor when heat is applied to the evaporator section and as a thermal insulator when heat is applied to the condenser section.
