Problem Statement
❖ Given
❖ Computer generated model of nanofluid heat pipe
❖ Theoretical results of experiment
❖ Objective
❖ Select heat pipe, working fluid, and type of wick
❖ Finalize configuration and prepare schematics for running the
heat pipe experiment
What is a Heat Pipe
❖ High capacity heat transfer devices that use evaporation, insulation
and condensation as means to remove heat [1].
❖ Uses a wick, as a porous media, to pump the condensed liquid
working fluid to evaporation section [2-7].
Kinematics of Heat Pipe
[8]
1. Evaporation section: Working fluid is heat up. Vaporized fluid creates a pressure gradient to
force the vapor move towards the condenser section.
2. Adiabatic section: Vapor travels. Hollow and vacuum.
3. Condenser section: Heat exits. Vaporized working fluid condense and release its latent heat.
The condensed working fluid drawn back to evaporator section through wick.
[9]
Applications of Heat Pipes[10-12]
• Space applications
– Transport from inside to outside of
shuttles, satellites, etc
– Does not require gravitational force
• Technological systems - ones
that require large heat flux
with small space
– Computers
– Cell Phones
Wick
❖ Porous medium
❖ Empty space (capillary action)
created in between the particles
arrangement - enables fluids to
move through it.
❖ Pumping condensed working fluid
from condenser section to the
evaporation section.
❖ Types of wick.
❖ Screens
❖ Sintered metal powders
❖ Woven fiberglass or grooves
❖Sintered copper powder wick;
packed with spherical particles of felt
metal fibers or powders.
[13]
Using Nanofluids as a Working Fluid[15]
❖ Nanofluids have significantly higher thermal conductivities compared
to traditional fluids
❖ Although better performance, imposing nanoparticles increases
density and viscosity; hinders the performance of the heat pipe
Nanoparticle Selection
Al2O3
❖ Design for[15]:
❖ High thermal conductivity
❖ Optimal nanofluid mass concentration
❖ Small particle size
❖ Aluminum Oxide is a workable fluid
as long as:
❖ Range of specific heat flux at the desired
temperature range [16-17]
❖ Compatibility with the pipe and the wick [1]
Schematics of Experiment
❖ The experiment setup consists of resistance heater, watt meter, and variable voltage
transformer.
❖ Data acquisition part consists of temperature data logger and PC to record the
thermocouple readings at different positions of the heat pipe.

Limits in Consideration
[14]
[19]
Our Current Selections
• Copper heat pipe with sintered copper powder wick
• Aluminum Oxide nanofluid solution
• Equipment to set up experiment
Coming Soon
• Achieve desired conditions for heat pipe
• Conduct the experiment
• Record experimental results
• Extrapolate data and explain any deviations
Conclusion
• Heat transfer device that dissipates heat by the use
of a working fluid, wick, evaporator, and condenser
• Used in space applications and small technological
devices
• Nanofluids increase thermal conductivity of working
fluid, enhances thermal performance
❖ Purpose of Senior Project -
Test the theoretical model,
compare results, and report
any deviations

  • 4. Kinematics of Heat Pipe [8] 1. Evaporation section: Working fluid is heat up. Vaporized fluid creates a pressure gradient to force the vapor move towards the condenser section. 2. Adiabatic section: Vapor travels. Hollow and vacuum. 3. Condenser section: Heat exits. Vaporized working fluid condense and release its latent heat. The condensed working fluid drawn back to evaporator section through wick. [9]
  • 5. Applications of Heat Pipes[10-12] • Space applications – Transport from inside to outside of shuttles, satellites, etc – Does not require gravitational force • Technological systems - ones that require large heat flux with small space – Computers – Cell Phones
  • 6. Wick ❖ Porous medium ❖ Empty space (capillary action) created in between the particles arrangement - enables fluids to move through it. ❖ Pumping condensed working fluid from condenser section to the evaporation section. ❖ Types of wick. ❖ Screens ❖ Sintered metal powders ❖ Woven fiberglass or grooves ❖Sintered copper powder wick; packed with spherical particles of felt metal fibers or powders. [13]
  • 7. Using Nanofluids as a Working Fluid[15] ❖ Nanofluids have significantly higher thermal conductivities compared to traditional fluids ❖ Although better performance, imposing nanoparticles increases density and viscosity; hinders the performance of the heat pipe
