Abstract of Patent Application(s)

    A thermomodulating heat pipe is provided including a heat pipe 
envelope having a capillary wick extending substantially continuously 
the full length of the heat pipe and a void space interior of the 
capillary wick. The heat pipe envelope has a nominal evaporator 
section, a nominal condenser section where the nominal condenser 
section includes an active condenser portion and an inactive condenser 
portion, and a reservoir section extending from the inactive condenser 
portion. At a nominal condition, a heat pipe fluid is provided with a 
liquid phase filling the capillary wick and a vapor phase filling the 
void space of the nominal evaporator section and the active condenser 
portion, a non-condensable gas filling the void space of at least the 
reservoir section and the inactive condenser portion. Depending on 
thermal conditions, both prograde and retrograde heat transfer are 
enabled.

Intellectual Property

    U.S. Application No. 18/204,114, filed on May 31, 2023, and 
entitled, ``Thermomodulating Heat Pipe.''
    The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license 
unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant 
of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or 
implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license 
agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by 
the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated 
as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed 
license.
    Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR 404.

Tommy W. Lee,
Acting Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
