In order to optimize the structure of a CPL evaporator and enhance heat transfer, a mathematical and physical model is developed to analyze the flow and heat transfer in the porous wick of the evaporator, whose calculation domain is divided into two parts: vapor-saturated region and liquid-saturated region. The characteristics of flow and heat transfer in the porous wick of a CPL evaporator have been numerically studied according to the field synergy principle. The influences of geometrical structures and heat flux on heat transfer enhancement are analyzed and illustrated by the figures in the present paper.
