Enhancement of heat transport in thermosyphon air preheater at high temperature with binary working fluid: A case study of TEG-water
In this research, the critical heat flux (CHF) due to flooding limit of thermosyphon heat pipe using triethylene glycol (TEG)-water mixture has been investigated. From the experiment it is found that, use of TEG-water mixture can extend the heat transport limitation compared with pure water and high...
