ABSTRACT:
A heat exchanger for use in high speed aircraft propulsion engines provides a plurality of heat pipes wherein the evaporator sections of the heat pipes are disposed in a hot fluid flow conduit and the condenser sections are disposed in a cold fluid flow conduit and the flow conduits are separated by a vented cavity and thin heat transfer fins are disposed around the condenser sections. Another embodiment provides a reactor using the heat exchanger and having a metalized, preferably with platinum, carbon fiber supported catalyst in the form of batting woven between the condenser sections of the heat pipes. The batting has platinum in the form of particles or more preferably in the form of small crystallites, typically about 1 to 5 nanometers in size.
