The difference between temperature-controlled heat pipe collector and ordinary heat pipe solar collector

1. Ordinary conventional heat pipes, if not used for several consecutive days in summer with good sunlight, will cause the temperature inside the collector to exceed 250 ℃, resulting in overheating, causing the water in the water tank to reach the boiling point, opening the TP valve of the water tank to release pressure, causing waste and danger. 

The advantage of temperature controlled heat pipes is that they automatically stop conducting heat when the heat is too high. 

Even if not used for a long time, the temperature inside the collector is controlled at around 110 ℃, and the maximum water temperature in the water tank is controlled at around 85 ℃. 

There is no need to install heat dissipation equipment or cover the surface of the collector in the pipeline. 

2. If conventional heat pipe solar collectors are not used frequently, high temperatures can lead to copper pipe carbonization, shorten service life, and even perforation, explosion, and leakage, resulting in system scrapping. 

The aerospace rare earth aluminum alloy material used for temperature control heat pipes has a high temperatur resistance of over 1200 ℃, which will not cause carbonization and will not affect its service life. 

3. The temperature controlled solar collector adopts the principle of phase change temperature control, precise and intelligent temperature control, overheat protection, and  has unique competitiveness in the market where heat pipe solar collectors are severely homogenized.
