This paper focuses on the computer cooling capacity using the thermosyphon loop with minichannels and minipump. The one-dimensional separate model of two-phase flow and heat transfer in a closed thermosyphon loop with minichannels and minipump has been used in calculations. The latest correlations for minichannels available in literature have been applied. This model is based on mass, momentum,...

In this paper the heat transfer characteristics of a two-phase closed thermosyphon over a wide range of heat transfer rates, system pressure, aspect ratios and filling ratios were studied. The experiments focused on the boiling and condensation heat transfer characteristics of the thermosyphon. The experimental boiling and condensation heat transfer coefficients inside the thermosyphon were com...

Nanofluids, stabilized suspensions of nanoparticles typically < 100 nm in conventional fluids, are evolving as potential enhanced heat transfer fluids due to their better thermal conductivity, increase in single phase heat transfer coefficient and significant increase in critical boiling heat flux. In the present paper, we investigate the overall thermal resistance of a closed two-phase thermos...

In this paper the heat transfer characteristics of a two-phase closed thermosyphon over a wide range of heat transfer rates, system pressure, aspect ratios and filling ratios were studied. The experiments focused on the boiling and condensation heat transfer characteristics of a thermosyphon with a copper tube having 25 and 32 mm inside and outside diameters. Distilled water was used as the wor...

The efficiency of two-phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) with nanofluid as working fluid under magnetic field effect was investigated experimentally. In this study, silver/water nanofluid with different concentration (20 to 80ppm) is tested. Also, magnetic field with various strength (0.12, 0.35 and 1.2 T) exerted to TPCT by permanent magnet. It was seen that the TPCT heat transfer performance an...

A heat pipe is an energy-efficient transfer device that relies on evaporation and condensation processes for energy transfer. The main purpose of this study to simulate a two-phase closed thermosyphon, at moderate temperature, can be used in industrial applications such as steam power plants. After creating computational network the Gambit software, thermosyphon simulated Fluent software using ...
