It is known that the heat transfer performance of lattice structures, which can be fabricated using metal 3D printers, can be significantly altered by modifying the beam structure. However, the method for determining the optimal beam structure remains unclear. The objective of this study is to develop an ultralight lattice structure for heat exchangers. To achieve this, an analytical method was first developed using the Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) structure as the basic shape, and was validated through experimental tests. Future work will involve investigating new geometries through both analytical and heat transfer experiments to identify the factors that enhance heat transfer performance.
