Abstract
This report provides preliminary design needs for radiological imaging heat pipes to perform in operando assessment for high-temperature alkaline metal charged heat pipes (HPs). The measurement parameters of interest have been summarized for characterizing the operando HP behavior. Based on the current SPHERE experimental facility, the needs and modifications required for the experimental setup have also been identified to enable the X-ray-assisted visualizations for the single HP during its operating conditions.
