An outer panel-mediated cooling system includes a heat source chamber; a cooling path that is located between outer and inner panels; a non-cooling path that is located between the outer and inner panels and thermally insulated from a cooling path and the outer panel and through which at least one of pressurized gas and return gas from the heat source chamber passes; a mixing chamber into which cooled gas leaving the cooling path and an uncooled gas leaving the non-cooling path flow, in which the cooled gas and the uncooled gas are mixed to form a mixed gas, and out of which the mixed gas flows toward the heat source chamber; and a flow rate regulating valve that regulates a flow rate of gas flowing toward the mixing chamber.

An evaporator includes: a housing having a plurality of surfaces including a front surface and a back surface, at least one of the front and back surfaces having the largest area among the plurality of surfaces; and a heat-absorbing element disposed on at least one of the front and back surfaces and thermally connected to a heat source. The housing includes: at least one working fluid inlet located in a surface of the housing, the surface being other than a top surface of the housing; and at least one pair of working fluid outlets located respectively in opposite longitudinal end portions of the top surface.

An evaporator incorporated into a transportation machine includes: heat exchange units aligned in a horizontal direction in the transportation machine placed on a horizontal surface and whose positions change together; distribution conduits connected respectively to the heat exchange units to supply a working fluid in a liquid phase to the heat exchange units; and valves disposed respectively in the distribution conduits to block passage of the working fluid flowing from the heat exchange units toward the distribution conduits at least when a tilt of the heat exchange units is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. Each heat exchange unit includes: an inlet portion connected to the distribution conduit; and a heat exchange portion that includes at least one heat exchange path extending straight upward from the inlet portion and that allows the working fluid passing through the heat exchange path to exchange heat with the heat source.

A heat transport system includes: a two-phase closed loop heat pipe; a pump disposed in a liquid conduit or a vapor conduit of the loop heat pipe to exert a circulation drive force on a working fluid; a tilt sensor that detects a tilt of the loop heat pipe; and a controller configured to run the pump if the tilt is greater than a predetermined tilt threshold and stop the pump if the tilt is equal to or smaller than the tilt threshold.

A loop heat pipe incorporated into a transportation machine whose allowable tilt angle is α° includes: an evaporator that changes at least a part of a working fluid from a liquid phase into a gas phase by heat absorbed from a heat source; a condenser that changes the working fluid from the gas phase into the liquid phase; a vapor conduit connecting an outlet of the evaporator and an inlet of the condenser; and a liquid conduit connecting an outlet of the condenser and an inlet of the evaporator. When the transportation machine is placed on a horizontal surface, a conduit centerline of the liquid conduit extends downward from the condenser to the evaporator, and a tangent line to the conduit centerline at an arbitrary point on the conduit centerline forms an angle of α° to 90° with a horizontal plane.

A loop heat pipe incorporated into a transportation machine that performs tilting movements includes: an evaporator that changes at least a part of a working fluid from a liquid phase into a gas phase; first and second condensers that change the working fluid from the gas phase into the liquid phase; first vapor and liquid conduits connecting the evaporator and the first condenser; and second vapor and liquid conduits connecting the evaporator and the second condenser. When the transportation machine is placed on a horizontal surface, the first and second condensers are located above the evaporator, and the first and second condensers are spaced apart in a horizontal direction, with the tilt axis and the evaporator interposed between the first and second condensers.

An outer panel-mediated cooling system includes: an outer shell including an outer panel, an inner panel located inward of the outer panel, and a heat-insulating layer located between the outer and inner panels; a cooling chamber that is located between the outer and inner panels and in which a gas releases heat outside through the outer panel and is thus cooled; a circulation loop in which a heat medium circulates, the circulation loop including a heating section located inward of the inner panel to heat the heat medium and a cooling section located in the cooling chamber to cool the heat medium; a flow path-forming structure located in the cooling chamber to form a circulation path for the gas; and a fan located in the cooling chamber to exert a drive force on the gas to allow the gas to circulate in the circulation path.

An air-conditioning system in vehicle is installed in a vehicle in which a vehicle body center position and an aisle center position are different, and has an air conditioner. The air-conditioning system in vehicle has first and second outlets arranged on both sides of the vehicle in a vehicle width direction and discharging conditioned air having substantially the same air volume into an interior, and an air regulating member setting a merging position of air flows discharged from the first and second outlets to the position where the line segment connecting the vehicle body center position and the aisle center position is internally divided at a ratio of between 20:80 and 86:14.
