ABSTRACT:
A reusable, durable heat pipe which is capable of operating at temperatures up to about 3000.degree. F. in an oxidizing environment and at temperatures above 3000.degree. F. in an inert or vacuum environment is produced by embedding a refractory metal pipe within a carbon-carbon composite structure. A reusable, durable heat pipe panel is made from an array of refractory-metal pipes spaced from each other, each refractory-metal pipe being embedded within a carbon-carbon composite structure. The reusable, durable, heat-pipe panel is employed to fabricate a hypersonic vehicle leading edge and nose cap.
