Thermal analysis of optimally designed inclined micro heat pipes with axial solid wall conduction

The effect of gravity on the thermal performance of inclined micro heat pipes with axial conduction in the solid wall is reported. A one-dimensional, steady-state model is developed from first principles in which the continuity, momentum, and energy equations of the liquid and vapour phases, together with the Young–Laplace equation, are solved numerically to yield the heat and fluid flow characteristics of an inclined micro heat pipe which is operated optimally at a certain operating temperature. The analysis covers both the favourable and adverse effects of gravity on the performance of a micro heat pipe. The effects of gravity, through the angle of inclination, on the heat transport capacity, the optimal charge level of the working fluid, the liquid volume fraction distribution, the circulation strength of working fluid and the solid wall temperature distribution are analysed, to provide a better insight for the design of inclined micro heat pipes.     

Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics of Two‐Phase Fluid in Inclined Pipes on a Rotation Platform

A rotating platform was used to create dynamic load, and the mixture air–water two‐phase flow and boiling steam–water two‐phase flow were obtained in an inclined test pipe. By changing the parameters, such as inclination of the test pipe, rotational speed, inlet temperature, flow rate, and so on, the experiments for two‐phase flow in the pipe at inclination of 0°, 45°, and 66° were conducted, respectively. The effects of acceleration and inclination on their flow and heat transfer characteristics were investigated. The two‐phase flow patterns in inclined pipes under rotation conditions were caught with a video camera. The images show that the impact mixed flow and churn flow were found in this research. The results show that the acceleration and pipe inclination significantly influence the flow characteristic and heat transfer of the two‐phase pipe flow. As the directions of the dynamic load and the gravity are opposite to the flow direction, the greater the dynamic load and inclination, the higher the pressure drop and the heat emission, and the lower the flow rate, the void fraction, and the fluid temperature. Therefore, the dynamic load and gravity will improve the flow resistance, enhance heat emission and reduce the heat gained by the fluid.     

Improvements of gravity assisted wickless heat pipes

The performance of conventional gravity assisted heat pipes and modified heat pipes with a separator in the adiabatic section is investigated experimentally. Heat pipes with a three layered wick in the evaporator section, in addition to the separator, are investigated. The performance of the modified heat pipes was compared to a reference gravity assisted heat pipe. Experiments were conducted on heat pipes of three lengths with a common diameter at constant evaporator and condenser lengths. The effect of varying the adiabatic length was, thus, investigated distinctly in normal heat pipes and in modified heat pipes with a separator. Water was employed as the working fluid in all heat pipes. The experimental program included five inclination angles and a heat flux range form 5 to 32 kW/m². The presence of the adiabatic separator caused a marked improvement in all heat pipes tested for all lengths and inclination angles. A pronounced reduction in heat pipe evaporator temperature was obtained, which is accompanied by an improvement in the heat transfer coefficient. A correlation was developed for prediction of the heat transfer coefficient for gravity assisted heat pipes with an adiabatic separator. The correlation took into consideration the effect of the varying adiabatic length. The correlation was in good agreement with the experimental data.     

Analysis of pulsating heat pipe with capillary wick and varying channel diameter

Variation in channel diameter is investigated as a means of enhancing heat transfer in a pulsating heat pipe with capillary wick using the model presented here. The model is one-dimensional with slug flow where the momentum equation is solved for each liquid slug. The number and mass of liquid slugs are allowed to vary throughout a simulation. The energy equation is solved both in the wall and wick and in the working fluid. The effects of diameter profile, gravity, fill ratio, and heating and cooling schemes can be studied with the model. Results yield similar trends to what has been experimentally observed. Results also indicate that heat transfer can be enhanced when the diameter of the channel is varied along the channel length, thereby providing increased range of heat load capability, less sensitivity to gravity, and in some cases smaller temperature differentials.     

A novel design and experimental study of a cryogenic loop heat pipe with high heat transfer capability

A cryogenic loop heat pipe (CLHP) has been developed for future aerospace applications at TIPC (Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry). This article presents a novel design of a cryogenic loop heat pipe and corresponding test system. The CLHP studied in this work has demonstrated to be able to operate in liquid-nitrogen temperature range using nitrogen as working fluid and to transfer large amount of heat over long distance with very small temperature difference. This device has been tested at three different orientations with respect to the relative position of the liquid line and the vapor line. The experimental results show that the CLHP can have a heat transfer capability of up to 12 W under horizontal and adverse gravity orientations and up to 20 W in liquid-nitrogen temperature range under gravity-assisted orientation.
