| Summary: | A glass pipe outer diameter 9.525 mm, thickness 1.6 mm and 300 mm length has
been created to show the state of working fluid inside the pipe when heated.
Copper heat pipe outer diameter 9.525 mm, thickness 0.8 mm, length 300 mm
with water working fluid and stainless steel wick mesh 100 has been created and
evaluated to be compared with solid pipe by experimental. In this study used
forced convection cooling by water in the condenser with 14 W fixed load at
evaporator. The position of the heat pipe varies from vertical (90 °) to horizontal
(0o).
The results showed that the heat pipe heat transfer capacity is affected by the
slope of the heat pipe. Heat pipe with vertical position having the highest heat
transfer and horizontal position has the lowest heat transfer. From the calculation
of heat transfer is obtained that the thermal conductivity of heat pipes 195.32
times to the solid copper. |
