Influence of Fluid Charge Rate on Gravity Assisted Heat Pipe Performance at Low Temperatures
Öz
The heat pipe is an effective heat transfer device. Thermosyphon is a closed, vacuumed, fluid
contained and generally pipe shaped heat transfer device. It ensures high heat transfer even at
very low temperature differences. Heat pipes have very wide utilization fields. Therefore, many
studies have been carried out to improve the thermal performances of heat pipes. In this study,
the effect of the fluid charge rate on the operation of the heat pipe was examined. To do this, a
heat pipe model with a diameter of 25 mm was created. The heat pipe's evaporator, condenser
and adiabatic lengths are 2m, 1m and 0.1m respectively. The heat pipe has been examined for
various fluid charge rates and different heat source temperatures. The increase in fluid charge
rate has been seen to have a negative impact on the operation of the heat pipe, particularly at
low temperatures. In addition, at low temperatures the acetone performed better heat transfer
than the methanol. At high temperatures, the methanol performed better heat transfer than the
acetone.
