Author(s) : LOCK G. S. H., KIRCHNER J. D.

Type of article: Article

Summary

AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF SINGLE-PHASE HEAT TRANSFER IN THE CLOSED TUBE THERMOSIPHON INCLINED AT VARIOUS ANGLES TO THE VERTICAL IS REPORTED. WITH WATER AS THE FILLING FLUID, THE SYSTEM IS STUDIED OVER A RANGE OF LOW RAYLEIGH NUMBERS EXTENDING ALMOST 2 ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE. HEAT TRANSFER DATA FOR A TUBE WITH EQUAL HEATED AND COOLED LENGTHS ARE PRESENTED AND DISCUSSED ALONG WITH A CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF THE INTERNAL FLOW.
