Summary

The model was used to develop operation maps for R113, acetone, methanol, heptane, water and Dowtherm-A working fluids, which give the film Reynolds number at the CCFL (or maximum power throughput) as a function of the vapour temperature in the range from 250 to 700 K. The effects of the thermosyphon inner diameter and length of the evaporator section on the film Reynolds number at the onset of flooding were also investigated.
