Abstract
To provide an evaporator capable of suppressing reduction in heat transport amount while also preventing an increase in the pressure loss of a working fluid.An evaporator comprising a container and a dividing layer adapted to divide the inside of the container into a liquid reservoir chamber and a vapor chamber, wherein the dividing layer includes a heat blocking layer on the liquid reservoir chamber side and a wick layer on the vapor chamber side, a gap is formed between the heat blocking layer and the wick layer, the liquid reservoir chamber and the gap are communicated with each other via a penetration path formed in the heat blocking layer, and a working fluid in the liquid reservoir chamber passes through the penetration path and penetrates into the gap and the wick layer by a capillary force.
