Flat plate micro heat pipe array (FPMHPA) is a new type of high-efficiency heat transfer element

and its introduction solves the problem of limited heat flux and heat transport capacity of a single micro heat pipe. Furthermore

it improves the overall reliability of the heat pipe. Given its superior flat plate

the FPMHPA overcomes the limitations of small contact area

shape

and contact thermal resistance of a conventional circular heat pipe in typical applications. In this study

the internal structure of the FPMHPA

type of wick

and manufacturing and packaging processes are summarized. Furthermore

theoretical research

mathematical model for performance

and experimental tests of the FPMHPA are introduced. Additionally

the application status of FPMHPA in many fields is expounded. Hence

this review provides focus areas for future research and reference for the development of the FPMHPA.
