Mani: Nothing really new, as you say this is pretty much what is happening in notebooks now and what has been happening in other fields like aerospace for tens of years.

Thanks for the feedback. Probably the only unique thing in it is the use of capillary action to transport the water back to the hot side - could make it more efficient.

<<Vacuum isn't exactly known for its wonderful thermal conductivity ;) >>

Yes, but conduction plays no rule here, convection does :)


Yes, I realize that. However, the original claim was that the liquid was "suspended in vacuum". Clearly, that is not the case. Had the liquid somehow been restrained in this manner, there would be no convection, only conduction - which vacuum just isn't very good at ;)

As for my links, they seem to work just fine in both Netscape 4.74 and IE 4. *shrug*
