I made a lot of heat pipes when I was working on high bay LEDs. Turns
out water is the best. You can use methanol, ethanol or some of the
freons but you will not move more heat.

Cool, ( or heat ) That has me thinking the right way, could even build
something using one of the R refrigerants that boil much lower temps?
I have solar there but don't want to waste power on that if I can do
some kind of passive pump.
We eventually will have about 7K watts more solar there but this is just
to take advantage of the situation this winter to keep the house side
from freezing up so hard.
This place has basically been abandoned for 10 years...

Heat Pipe. It would work a little. Finned tubes from a radiator.
Full of water and then drawn down to a vacuum and sealed. The
solarium would boil the water and it would flow to the cold area.
But the cold area of the tube will have to be higher than the warm
end or you will have to have a wick in it.

Hi folks,
I have a solarium attached to an unheated house and there is a bathroom
window about 3x3' between them open. Does anyone have any magic tricks
up their sleeves to move the warm solarium heat into the house without
using power? The temp difference the other day was 106 in the solarium
and 55 in the house.
Best,
Robert
