Questions related to optimization of heat-transfer processes in a thermosiphon are considered. Computer simulation of the process of heat transfer through the finned walls of the tubes of a thermosiphon is performed and the optimal values of their geometric characteristics are determined. Data of a computer simulation of heat exchange are compared with the results of calculations using a widely accepted technique. It is shown that corrections must be introduced into the results obtained in certain regions of the operational parameters of thermosiphons using a widely accepted technique.
