Investigation of Micro Porosity Sintered wick in Vapor Chamber for Fan Less Design
Micro Porosity Sintered wick is made from metal injection molding processes,
which provides a wick density with micro scale. It can keep more than 53 %
working fluid inside the wick structure, and presents good pumping ability on
working fluid transmission by fine infiltrated effect. Capillary pumping
ability is the important factor in heat pipe design, and those general
applications on wick structure are manufactured with groove type or screen
type. Gravity affects capillary of these two types more than a sintered wick
structure does, and mass heat transfer through vaporized working fluid
determines the thermal performance of a vapor chamber. First of all, high
density of porous wick supports high transmission ability of working fluid. The
wick porosity is sintered in micro scale, which limits the bubble size while
working fluid vaporizing on vapor section. Maximum heat transfer capacity
increases dramatically as thermal resistance of wick decreases. This study on
permeability design of wick structure is 0.5 - 0.7, especially permeability (R)
= 0.5 can have the best performance, and its heat conductivity is 20 times to a
heat pipe with diameter (Phi) = 10mm. Test data of this vapor chamber shows
thermal performance increases over 33 %.Comment: Submitted on behalf of TIMA Editions

The ordered K-theory of a full extension
Let A be a C*-algebra with real rank zero which has the stable weak
cancellation property. Let I be an ideal of A such that I is stable and
satisfies the corona factorization property. We prove that 0->I->A->A/I->0 is a
full extension if and only if the extension is stenotic and K-lexicographic. As
an immediate application, we extend the classification result for graph
C*-algebras obtained by Tomforde and the first named author to the general
non-unital case. In combination with recent results by Katsura, Tomforde, West
and the first author, our result may also be used to give a purely
K-theoretical description of when an essential extension of two simple and
stable graph C*-algebras is again a graph C*-algebra.Comment: Version IV: No changes to the text. We only report that Theorem 4.9
is not correct as stated. See arXiv:1505.05951 for more details. Since
Theorem 4.9 is an application to the main results of the paper, the main
results of this paper are not affected by the error. Version III comments:

Effect of atmospheric turbulence on propagation properties of optical vortices formed by using coherent laser beam arrays
In this paper, we consider the effect of the atmospheric turbulence on the
propagation of optical vertex formed from the radial coherent laser beam array,
with the initially well-defined phase distribution. The propagation formula of
the radial coherent laser array passing through the turbulent atmosphere is
analytically derived by using the extended Huygens-Fresnel diffraction
integral. Based on the derived formula, the effect of the atmospheric
turbulence on the propagation properties of such laser arrays has been studied
in great detail. Our main results show that the atmospheric turbulence may
result in the prohibition of the formation of the optical vortex or the
disappearance of the formed optical vortex, which are very different from that
in the free space. The formed optical vortex with the higher topological charge
may propagate over a much longer distance in the moderate or weak turbulent
atmosphere. After the sufficient long-distance atmospheric propagation, all the
output beams (even with initially different phase distributions) finally lose
the vortex property and gradually become the Gaussian-shaped beams, and in this
case the output beams actually become incoherent light fields due to the
decoherence effect of the turbulent atmosphere.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
Composite Geometric Phase for Multipartite Entangled States
When an entangled state evolves under local unitaries, the entanglement in
the state remains fixed. Here we show the dynamical phase acquired by an
entangled state in such a scenario can always be understood as the sum of the
dynamical phases of its subsystems. In contrast, the equivalent statement for
the geometric phase is not generally true unless the state is separable. For an
entangled state an additional term is present, the mutual geometric phase, that
measures the change the additional correlations present in the entangled state
make to the geometry of the state space. For qubit states we find this
change can be explained solely by classical correlations for states with a
Schmidt decomposition and solely by quantum correlations for W states.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, improved presentation, results and conclusions
