EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE THERMAL PERFORMANCE OF A HEAT PIPE UNDER VARIOUS MODES OF CONDENSER COOLING
SINOPSIS
In the present work, three heat pipes of the same length of 1 m and outer diameter 0.031 m were constructed with some modifications in the condenser section in order to provide three different modes of cooling, viz., air cooling, water cooling, and cooling with extended surfaces in the condenser section. Experiments are conducted to determine the surface and vapor temperature distributions under steady and transient conditions for all the above-mentioned three modes of cooling in the condenser section. The results obtained are compared and presented in this paper. Moreover, the effective thermal conductivity of the heat pipe is also determined and reported.
