Heat transfer performance of corrugated-tube thermosiphons. 2. Condenser performance.

Author(s) : HIRASHIMA M., et al.

Type of article: Article

Summary

A two-phase closed thermosiphon made of a corrugated tube was developed to extend the application field of heat pipes. The paper describes the thermal performance of the condenser section. A condensation heat-transfer coefficient is proposed as a function of Nusselt's theory modified by three parameters: the Lockhart-Martinelli parameter and two new parameters concerned with the effects of the inclination angle and the fill charge ratio.
