This work on liquid-metal coolants fills the void of knowledge concerning heat pipe properties and specifics and also the void of Soviet and Western monographs that would provide a uniform approach to the problem of validating the use of liquid-metal coolants for heat pipes and energetics. It presents applied problems, a complete set of properties of liquid-metal coolants and working fluids for currently employed and prospective power plants.
