Performance Of Heat Transfer

Homogenous dispersing of nanoparticles in a base fluid is an excellent way to increase the thermal performance of heat transfer devices especially Heat Pipes (HPs). As a wickless, cheap and efficient heat pipe, Pulsating Heat Pipes (PHPs) are important candidates for thermal application considerations. In the present research an Open Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe (OLPHP) is fabricated and tested experimentally. The effects of working fluid namely, water, Silica Coated ferrofluid (SC ferrofluid), and ferrofluid without surface coating of nanoparticles (ferrofluid), charging ratio, heat input, and application of magnetic field on the overall thermal performance of the OLPHPs are investigated. Experimental results show that ferrofluid has better heat transport capability relative to SC ferrofluid. Furthermore, application of magnetic field improves the heat transfer performance of OLPHPs charged with both ferrofluids.

The present work investigates the thermal performance of a five turn Open Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe (OLPHP). The effects of working fluid namely water and ferrofluid, heat input, ferrofluid concentration, charging ratio, and orientation will be considered. Experimental results show that using ferrofluids can enhance the thermal performance in comparison with the case of distilled water. In addition, applying a magnetic field on the OLPHP charged with ferrofluid reduces its thermal resistance. Variation of the ferrofluid concentration results in different thermal performance of the OLPHP. Best charging ratio for the distilled water and ferrofluid without magnetic field is 60% in most of the cases, while in the case of ferrofluid in the presence of magnetic field at low heat inputs, 20% and at high heat inputs 60% of charging ratios have lowest thermal resistance.

In the present research an experimental investigation is performed to explore the effects of working fluid, heat input, ferrofluid concentration, magnets location, and inclination angle on the thermal performance of an Open Loop Pulsating Heat Pipe (OLPHP). Obtained results show that using ferrofluid can improve the thermal performance and applying a magnetic field on the water based ferrofluid decreases the thermal resistance. It shows that at an inclination angle of the OLPHP to be zero, the thermal performance of the present OLPHP reduces. Best heat transfer capability was achieved at 67.5 degree relative to horizontal axis for all of working fluids. Variation of the magnets location leads to a different thermal resistance in the OLPHP charged with ferrofluid.

Micro Heat Pipes

Micro heat pipe is a two-phase heat transfer device offering effective high heat-flux removal in electronics cooling. Essentially, micro heat pipe relies on the phase change processes, namely evaporation and condensation, and the circulation of working fluid to function as heat transfer equipment. The vast applications of micro heat pipe in portable appliances necessitate its functionality under different orientations with respect to gravity. Therefore, its thermal performance is strongly related to its orientation. By incorporating solid wall conduction, together with the continuity, momentum, and energy equations of the working fluid, a mathematical model is developed to investigate the heat and fluid flow characteristics of inclined micro heat pipes. We investigate both the favorable and adverse effects of gravity on the circulation rate which is intimately related to the thermal performance of micro heat pipes. The effects of gravity, through the angle of inclination, on the circulation strength and heat transport capacity are analysed. This study serves as a useful analytical tool in the micro heat pipe design and performance analysis, associated with different inclinations and operating conditions.

In this work, a four-turn Pulsating Heat Pipe (PHP) is fabricated and tested experimentally. The novelty of the present PHP is the capability of obtaining various thermal performances at a specific heat input by changing the magnetic field. The effects of working fluid (water and ferrofluid), charging ratio (25%, 40%, and 55%), heat input (25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75, and 85 W), orientation (vertical and horizontal heat mode), and magnetic field on the thermal performance of PHPs are investigated. The results showed that applying the magnetic field on the water based ferrofluid reduced the thermal resistance of PHP by a factor of 40.5% and 38.3% in comparison with the pure water case for the vertical and horizontal mode, respectively. According to the experimental results, an optimum thermal resistance of 0.38 °C/W was achieved at the following conditions: water-based ferrofluid as the working fluid in the presence of magnetic field, vertical mode, charging ratio of 55%, 7% volumetric concentration, and 85 W heat input. This thermal resistance is 11.5 times better than that of the empty PHP.

Thermal Management Of Electronics

Currently, the thermal management of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) has become a challenge. In the present research, a micro pulsating heat pipe (MPHP) with a hydraulic diameter of 508 μm, is experimented. The thermal performance of the MPHP in both the transient and steady conditions, the effects of the working fluid (water, silver nanofluid, and ferrofluid), heating power (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 28 W), charging ratio (20, 40, 60, and 80%), inclination angle (0 deg, 25 deg, 45 deg, 75 deg, and 90 deg relative to horizontal axis), and the application of magnetic field, are investigated and thoroughly discussed. The experimental results show that the optimum charging ratio for water is 40%, while this optimum for nanofluids is 60%. In most of situations, the nanofluid charged MPHPs have a lower thermal resistance relative to the water charged ones. For ferrofluid charged MPHP, the application of a magnetic field substantially reduces the thermal resistance. This study proposes an outstanding technique for the thermal management of electronics.

Pipa kalor (Heat pipe) merupakan salah satu teknologi penukar kalor dua fase sistem pasif, pipa kalor itu sendiri memiliki struktur dengan konduktivitas termal tinggi, hal ini memungkinkan transportasi panas dengan mempertahankan perbedaan suhu sehingga seragam di sepanjang bagian yang dipanaskan dan didinginkan. Kinerja termal pipa kalor dapat ditentukan dari nilai hambatan panas. Ketika hambatan panas bernilai kecil, maka laju perpindahan kalor meningkat begitu pula sebaliknya. Pengujian kinerja termal  pipa kalor tembaga pada fluida kerja air telah dilakukan. Kinerja termal dapat diamati dari hasil pengambilan data temperatur dan pengolahan data. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan perbedaan temperatur antara temperatur pemanas dan dan temperatur fluida terus meningkat dengan kenaikan laju perpindahan panas dari variasi beban pemanasan 70 volt, 90 volt, 110 vot, 130 volt, dan 150 volt. Heat pipe is a passive two-phase heat exchanger technology, heat pipe itself has a structure with high thermal conductivity, this allows heat transportation by maintaining a uniform temperature difference along the heated and cooled part. Thermal performance of heat pipes can be determined from the value of heat resistance. When heat resistance is small, the heat transfer rate increases and vice versa. Testing the thermal performance of copper heat pipes on the working fluid of water has been carried out. Thermal performance can be observed from the results of temperature data collection and data processing. The results of this study indicate the temperature difference between heating temperature and fluid temperature continues to increase with increasing heat transfer rates from variations in heating loads of 70 volts, 90 volts, 110 vot, 130 volts, and 150 volts.

Pulsating Heat Pipe

Closed loop pulsating heat pipe (CLPHP) is a relatively new two-phase passive heat transfer device to suit present requirement of high heat flux dissipation in modern electronic components. The operating mechanism of CLPHP is not well understood and the present state of the technology cannot predict required design parameters for a given task. The aim of research work presented in this paper is to better understand thermal performance of CLPHP. A series of experimental investigation were conducted on a multi-turn CLPHP made of copper capillary tube of 2-mm inner diameter. Two kinds of working fluids viz. ethanol and acetone were employed. The influence characterization has been studied for the variation of heat input and filling ratio (FR) of the tested CLPHP. Thermal performance of the CLPHP is evaluated by heat transfer and thermal resistance. The results strongly demonstrate the effect of heat input and FR of the working fluid on thermal performance of the device.
