Abstract: Inspired by the capillary-driven heat transfer devices, we present a phase-change-driven nanopump operating almost isothermally. Computational experiments on different-sized nanopumps revealed efficient operation of the pump despite the reduction in system size that extinguishes capillary… read more here.
