Quote (from http://www.cheresources.com/htpipes.shtml):

A heat pipe is a simple device that can quickly transfer heat from one 
point to another. They are often referred to as the "superconductors" 
of heat as they possess an extra ordinary heat transfer capacity & rate 
with almost no heat loss.

A Google search shows many more interresting links about heat pipes...
