Abstract

A method for operating a latent heat transport apparatus by providing a working liquid for a latent heat transport apparatus, which includes a compound of the formula C 6 F 13 C 2 H 5 at an operation temperature of from −50 to 200° C.

Claims (14)

1. A method for operating a latent heat transport apparatus comprising providing a working liquid for a latent heat transport apparatus, which comprises a compound of the formula C 6 F 13 C 2 H 5

wherein the operation temperature is from −50 to 200° C.

2. The method for operating a latent heat transport apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the latent heat transport apparatus is a heat pipe.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the compound is at least 50 mass % in the working liquid.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid further comprises an alcohol.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the alcohol is a C 1-4 alcohol.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the content of the compound is from 90 to 99 mass %, and the content of the alcohol is from 1 to 10 mass %.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein, wherein the C 1-4 alcohol is at least one alcohol selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol and n-butanol.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid further comprises at least one stabilizer selected from the group consisting of an antioxidant, a heat resistant agent and a metal deactivator.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid is an azeotropic composition.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid further comprises at least one hydrocarbon that is a linear or branched C 6-8 hydrocarbon or a cyclic saturated hydrocarbon.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid further comprises at least one hydrocarbon that is n-pentane, cyclopentane, n-hexane, or n-heptane.

12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the working liquid further comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon, a fluoroalcohol, a ketone, and a fluoroether.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the working liquid further comprises an alcohol.
