NUMERICAL AND ANALYTICAL SOLUTIONS FOR TWO-DIMENSIONAL GAS DISTRIBUTION IN GAS-LOADED HEAT PIPES.

Author(s) : PETERSON P. F., TIEN C. L.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE AUTHORS PRESENT A TWO-DIMENSIONAL AXISYMMETRIC DIFFUSION MODEL FOR THE NON-CONDENSABLE GAS DISTRIBUTION IN GAS-LOADED HEAT PIPES AND THERMOSIPHONS. THE MODEL HAS MAJOR ADVANTAGES OVER EXISTING, COMPUTATIONALLY TIME CONSUMING, TWO-DIMENSIONAL MODELS. IT HAS EQUAL ACCURACY WHILE USING ONLY THE COMPUTATIONAL EFFORT REQUIRED FOR THE CRUDER ONE-DIMENSIONAL MODEL, AND ALSO INCLUDES THE EFFECTS OF WALL CONDUCTION AND SPATIAL VARIATION OF THE CONDESRETRFF. TO SIMPLIFY DESIGN CALCULATIONS FURTHER AN ANALYTIC TWO-DIMENSIONAL SOLUTION IS ESTABLISHED.
