DESIGN OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE SINTERED-WICK HEAT PIPES.
Author(s) : PRUZAN D. A.
Type of article: Article
Summary
AN ANALYTICAL MODEL FOR PREDICTING PEAK (DRYOUT) STEADY-STATE HEAT TRANSFER LIMITS IN HEAT PIPES UTILIZINGSINTERED-WICK STRUCTURES IS PRESENTED. BOILING IS ACCOUNTED FOR AND ONE-DIMENSIONAL LIQUID AND VAPOUR FLOWS ARE ASSUMED. EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS OF PEAK HEAT FLUX VALUES FOR 2 CYLINDRICAL SINTERED-COPPER WICKS ARE MADE AND COMPARED WITH ANALYTICAL PREDICTIONS. THEORETICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL DRYOUT HEAT FLUX VALUES AGREE TO WITHIN 10 %. FLAT PLATE AND CYLINDRICAL WICK HEAT PIPE PERFORMANCE IS EVALUATED AS A FUNCTION OF DESIGN PARAMETERS.
