Summary

AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY WAS MADE OF CRITICAL HEAT FLUX IN A CLOSED TWO-PHASE HEAT PIPE. THE EFFECTS OF INSIDE DIAMETER, HEATED LENGTH, WORKING LIQUID, FILL CHARGE AND INSIDE TEMPERATURE ON THE CRITICAL HEAT FLUX WERE INVESTIGATED. THE PRESENT AND PREVIOUSLY-PUBLISHED EXPERIMENTAL DATA WERE CORRELATED WITH EXPRESSIONS ALREADY PROPOSED BY OTHER INVESTIGATORS BUT THE AGREEMENTS WERE NOT GOOD. ACCORDINGLY, A NEW CORRELATING EXPRESSION WAS DERIVED. THIS EXPRESSION AGREES WITH THE EXPERIMENTAL DATA WITHIN ABOUT 30% ACCURACY. ALSO, DISCUSSION OF THE ADEQUATE FILL CHARGE IS MADE.
