%X The heat pipe (TC), initially developed at NASA to solve problems related to space cooling devices, is a complexthermal evaporation-condensation that rapidly transports large amount of heat. Today it have several technological applications related to the transfer of energy, as its use in the cooling of processors for personal computers. In this research, the student explored experimentally the spatial and temporal behavior of the heat conduction along the tubeCT with different liquids as a means of convective heat transfer. It also shows the thermal behavior of a commercial TCused in solar water heaters.
