Effects of Evaporator’s Length on Pulsating Heat Pipes’ Thermal Performance
Abstract:   (6579 Views)
Developing the high performance electrical devices requires high capacity heat transfer manners, which could be the pulsating heat pipes (PHPs). PHPs have a better performance in compare with conventional heat pipes (HPs), besides, they can be used to improve cooling systems for electrical devices, in future. There are some other applications for PHPs in other industries as heat transfer converters, either. The effect of the evaporator’s length on the PHPs’ performance is investigated experimentally by hiring a five turns PHPs and ferrofluid as set-up and working nanofluid, respectively. The results show that PHPs’ performance is enhanced by increasing the evaporator’s length.
Keywords: Pulsating heat pipes (PHPs), Thermal resistance, nanofluid, Evaporator's length
