Claim 0:
1. A method of manufacturing a carbon fiber radiator fin system, the method comprising:
providing a set of carbon fibers configured to bend at least along a longitudinal axis;
interlacing the set of carbon fibers to form a radiator fin, the radiator fin formed from the set of carbon fibers;
wherein the radiator fin is devoid of weft tows in the subset of carbon fibers; and
attaching the radiator fin to a heat pipe, the heat pipe in thermal communication with a thermal energy source; wherein:
substantially each carbon fiber of the set of carbon fibers is coupled to the heat pipe; and
the radiator fin conducts thermal energy away from the heat pipe.
