The design of high-performance heat pipes requires optimization of heat transfer surfaces and liquid and vapor flow channels to suppress the heat transfer operating limits. In the paper an analytical model of the vapor flow in high-temperature heat pipes is presented, showing that the axial heat transport capacity limited by the sonic heat transfer limit depends on the working fluid, vapor flow area, manner of liquid evaporation into the vapor core of the evaporator, and lengths of the evaporator and adiabatic regions. Limited comparisons of the model predictions with data of the sonic heat transfer limits are shown to be very reasonable, giving credibility to the proposed analytical approach to determine the effect of various parameters on the axial heat transport capacity. Large axial heat transfer rates can be achieved with large vapor flow cross-sectional areas, small lengths of evaporator and adiabatic regions or a vapor flow area increase in these regions, and liquid evaporation in the evaporator normal to the main flow.

A High Temperature Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger Consists of Heat Pipes Filled with Different Working Media inside. in Different Temperature Zones, Heat Pipes with Different Working Media Are Linked Safely by Controlling the Vapor Temperature, the Media inside the Heat Pipe. the Vapor Temperature inside the Pipe Is Heavily Affected by the Temperature Field of Fluid outside the Heat Pipes and the Heat Transfer Performance inside the Heat Pipe, while the Heat Transfer Performance inside the Pipe in Turn Has a Bearing on the Temperature Distribution of Fluid outside the Pipe. to Coordinate the Fluid Temperature Distribution both inside and outside the Pipes, Study on Local Heat Transfer Enhancement Has Been Conducted on High Temperature Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger in this Article, and Cfd Computational Software Was Used to Make Rational and Accurate Prediction of Fluid Temperature Distribution both inside and outside the Pipes, so as to Provide Economic and Reliable Design Basis for High Temperature Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger.
