The potential application of such effect is for example in the evaporator of the domestic micro-CHP unit, where the reduction of pumping power could be obtained. Preliminary analysis of the results indicates water as having the best potential for developing the capillary effect.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Investigation of the influence of capillary effect on operation of the loop heat pipe}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/94575/PDF/04_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/aoter-2014-0021}, keywords={loop heat pipe, capillary forces, waste heat recovery}, }
