A heat pipe system, method, and heat sink system to enhance heat transfer from a heat-generating component. The method includes generating heat with the heat-generating component. The method also includes transferring at least a portion of the heat to at least a portion of a volatile fluid within one or more heat pipes. The method further includes modifying, dynamically, an active heat transfer region of the one or more heat pipes, thereby dynamically modulating heat transfer from the heat-generating component through the one or more heat pipes.
