Summary

A numerical model has been developed to predict the behaviour of non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures in smooth as well as textured gravity assisted heat pipes. In addition, experiments were performed on fully instrumented heat pipes using pure as well as non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures to determine their heat-transfer characteristics. The effects of operating conditions on the transport capability have been measured and analyzed. Numerical results showed that the proposed model favourably predicted the performance of the heat pipes.
