Use of loop thermosyphon as an efficient way of heat dissipation in transport facilities

摘要

The possibilities of using heat pipes have an irreplaceable place also in the field of technologies used in transport. The use of these passive heat transfer devices is becoming an increasingly topical, applied and economically advantageous area. At a time of significant electronic transport, each electrical element produces a certain amount of heat loss. An efficient way of using these energy losses is also possible through heat pipes, which work on the principle of phase changes. Precisely for this reason, this scientific work is also devoted to a more detailed study of the processes taking place in a heat pipe, which is located in a space with electrical equipment. The main area of research is concentrated on the evaporation process, which depends on the amount of filling the evaporating part of the heat pipe with the working substance with water. The amount of heat transferred was also monitored. The results of experimental measurements provide specific information on the course of the evaporation itself and will be used in further research with heat pipes.
