The performance of flat miniature heat pipes (FMHPs) is examined in this study, with particular attention paid to the effects of operational parameters, working fluids, and wick structures. Thermal resistance, capillary limit, boiling limit, and temperature distribution under varied heat fluxes and ambient conditions were assessed using numerical simulations and artificial neural network (ANN) models. The findings show that the highest capillary limit (roughly 1 kW) and lowest thermal resistance (0.34–0.56 K/W) are obtained from sintered copper wicks that use water as the working fluid. With a slight decrease in capillary limit (roughly 10 %), the use of CuO nanofluids further reduces thermal resistance by up to 7 % at 10 vol%. Vapor velocities can reach 0.63 m/s in hotspot conditions, producing pressure gradients of roughly 18.63 kPa. The system's overall thermal uniformity is enhanced by multi-core heat loading. To predict maximum temperature, thermal resistance, and heat transfer with high accuracy (R2 &gt; 0.99), an ANN model was created. When wick-working fluid combinations were compared using a normalized Figure of Merit (FOM), it was found that water with mesh screen generated the highest FOM (1.0), while water and sintered copper remained the best option for high-flux applications.

Consequently, extensive research has been carried out in recent years on thermal protective apparel. The present study examines the effects of thermal exposure conditions, firefighter age, and variations in the heat transfer coefficient on thermal injury. This study further examines the combined effects of age- and temperature-dependent blood perfusion, metabolic heat, shivering, and work-induced heat on basal layer temperature distribution and thermal damage across different age groups and body sites. Increased exposure density negates the protective benefits of the first air gap, resulting in adverse effects, while the other air gaps (AG2, AG3, and AG4) maintain their protective function. Older firefighters exhibit elevated basal layer temperatures across all conditions, with peak temperature increases of 41.59 % and 18.30 % observed in radiative exposure relative to flame and 50/50 convective-radiative exposures, respectively. Adjusting the heat transfer coefficient (HTC) from 0 to 50 W/m<sup>2</sup>K during the post-exposure phase markedly lowers maximum temperatures across all age groups and exposure scenarios. During the cooling phase, such variations effectively prevent third-degree burns in older firefighters, extending the time to thermal damage by 11.57 % and 3.19 % for 50/50 convective-radiative and radiative exposures, respectively. The arms are identified as the most susceptible body region, followed by the legs, back, chest, and abdomen during high-intensity exposures, although variations in the heat transfer coefficient significantly reduce peak temperatures. While the transition time to second-degree burns increases marginally, the progression to third-degree burns is substantially delayed across all body regions under all exposure conditions. Age- and temperature-dependent blood perfusion lowered the peak temperature by ∼2.5 % under radiative exposure, while metabolic, shivering, and work-induced heat had negligible effects at high intensity. These findings underscore the critical need for advancements in thermal protective clothing and cooling interventions to minimize thermal injuries.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":341,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermal Sciences","volume":"220 ","pages":"Article 110327"},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145119205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
