Abstract
A heat transfer device for installation in a system having a heat generating element within the system away from which heat is to be transferred is described. The heat transfer device includes a heat pipe having a first portion, a second portion, and a working fluid contained within the heat pipe for transferring heat from the first portion to the second portion. The first portion is disposed in proximity with the heat generating element. The second portion is coupled to the first portion. At least part of the second portion is disposed outside the system to dissipate heat from the heat generating element and the second portion may be variably extended outside the system.
